Working Student Energy System Modelling (m/f/d)

As a transmission system operator, we secure the power supply for around eleven million people in Baden-Württemberg. We create the infrastructure for the energy transition by maintaining, optimizing and expanding the high-voltage network according to needs. With our network we make the country not only an innovative power turntable in the heart Europe, but are shaping the energy system of the future. The asset management area has the overall overview of the state and the technologies used in our transmission network. With a deep understanding of the energy system of the future and the working relationships, concrete needs are identified to ensure system stability and security today and in the future. The resulting network measures and technical-economic procedures accompany asset management from development to completion.

You are researching current developments on renewable energies, energy policy frameworks and other input variables for our energy system model. In this way you support us in creating scenarios for the future development of German and European energy markets. You can also carry out analyses with the energy system model on your own. You develop internal data processing tools and apply them. Last but not least, you will help shape our internal documentation and knowledge base around the energy system modeling.

You are studying economic engineering, renewable energies, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering or a similar discipline. First experience in the field of scenario data/energy system modeling (in particular PyPSA) you already bring. You have knowledge in programming languages for data analysis, such as Python, MATLAB, VBA, etc. and work safely with MS Office (Excel, PowerPoint). You have an independent and targeted way of working. You can master German and English.
