Research assistant - Energy supply scenarios in low voltage under consideration of the SMGW infrastructure (m/f/d)

Research assistant – Energy supply scenarios in low voltage under consideration of the SMGW infrastructure (m/f/d)

The rollout of smart meter gateways is slowly picking up speed. This is creating new opportunities for digitalized grid operation and the use of household-related flexibility. The resulting ICT infrastructure must be protected against communication disruptions and failures in order to continue to ensure resilient grid operation. What will future energy supply scenarios look like in an SMGW-based ICT infrastructure? What contribution can HEMS make to resilient grid operation? We are looking for you to answer these questions.
Your tasks will include

• Identification and creation of energy supply scenarios with a focus on the NS level
• Conceptualization of preventive and curative measures
• Conducting simulation studies on domestic prosumers and flexibilities
• Support for expansion and validation with the laboratory infrastructure
• Application for and processing of research projects
• Publication of research results and participation in national and international conferences
• Supporting university teaching (preparation and implementation of courses and supervision of student work)

• You have a university degree (Master’s degree or equivalent) in electrical engineering, information technology or related fields
• You have a very good command of German and English
• Ideally, you have experience in technology-oriented project work, with Python and have already gained initial insights into home energy management and smart meter gateways
• You are flexible, resilient and can work well in a team

• Work on cutting-edge and sought-after research topics in an inspiring working environment as part of the university community
• The opportunity to do a doctorate
• A lively campus life in an international atmosphere with numerous intercultural offers and international cooperations
• Remuneration according to TV-L (annual special payment, company pension scheme, comparable to a company pension in the private sector) including 30 days’ annual leave
• Flexible working and part-time models and a family-friendly university culture, awarded the “Family-friendly university” audit in 2007
• Special further training opportunities for young academics, a postdoc program and other offers from the central HR development department and sports activities
