Wind Resource Solution Engineer

Position Overview:

Responsible for conducting wind resource assessments, analyzing meteorological data, evaluating potential wind farm sites, and developing technical solutions to support wind energy project development. The position provides technical expertise in wind resource characterization, energy yield assessment, wind farm layout optimization, and technical feasibility studies to ensure the viability and optimal performance of wind energy projects.

Requirements:

1. Bachelor’s degree or above in meteorology, wind energy, energy, engineering or a related discipline.

2. 2+ years of experience in wind resource assessment, micro-siting or wind farm energy yield analysis.

3. Proficient in WindPRO/OpenWind or similar tools, including flow modelling, wake analysis, long-term correction and uncertainty assessment.

4. Experience with met mast/LiDAR campaign design, sensors and data quality control.

5. Knowledge of IEC 61400 standards, third-party EYA and bankable wind resource assessment is preferred.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Wind Resource Assessment – Analyze wind speed, wind direction, turbulence, and other meteorological data.
2. Wind Farm Site Assessment – Evaluate potential wind farm locations and determine their suitability.
3. Wind Data Analysis – Process and interpret data from meteorological masts, LiDAR, and SoDAR equipment.
4. Energy Yield Assessment – Estimate the annual energy production (AEP) of proposed wind farms.
5. Wind Farm Optimization – Recommend turbine locations, layouts, and configurations to maximize energy production.
6. Technical Solutions Development – Develop technical proposals and provide engineering solutions for wind energy projects.
7. Technical Reporting – Prepare wind resource assessment reports, feasibility studies, and technical presentations.
8. Cross-functional Coordination – Work with engineering, business development, project development, and other technical teams.
