Job Description:

Primary goal is to create efficient and cost-effective solar energy solutions that meet the specific needs and requirements of their clients.

Responsibilities:

System Design and Sizing:

Analyzing a client's energy needs, site conditions, and available space to determine the appropriate size and configuration of the solar energy system. This includes calculating the capacity of solar panels, inverters, batteries (if applicable), and other components.

Site Assessment:

Conducting thorough site assessments to evaluate factors like solar exposure, shading, roof condition, and structural considerations. This helps in optimizing the placement and orientation of solar panels for maximum energy production.

Technical Expertise:

Possessing a strong understanding of solar energy technologies, including photovoltaic (PV) panels, inverters, charge controllers, batteries, and other related equipment. Staying updated on the latest advancements and trends in solar technology.

Regulatory Compliance:

Ensuring that the solar energy system complies with local building codes, zoning regulations, and other legal requirements. Obtaining necessary permits and approvals for installation including Net Metering.

Energy Modeling and Simulation:

Using specialized software tools such as Sketch Up, Autocad, Helioscope and PVSyst to perform energy modeling and simulation to predict the performance of the solar energy system under different conditions. This helps in accurately estimating energy production and cost savings.

Cost Estimation and Financial Analysis:

Creating detailed cost estimates for the entire solar energy project, including equipment, installation, and ongoing maintenance. Conducting financial analysis to demonstrate the return on investment (ROI) and potential cost savings for the client.

Component Selection:

Selecting appropriate solar panels, inverters, mounting systems, and other components based on factors like efficiency, durability, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with the specific project requirements.

Collaboration and Communication:

Collaborating with other professionals, such as electrical engineers, architects, contractors, and clients to ensure seamless integration of the solar energy system into the overall project. Effectively communicating design plans and technical details to stakeholders.

Project Documentation:

Creating detailed design documents, including schematic diagrams, electrical layouts, bill of materials, and other technical specifications required for the installation and commissioning of the solar energy system.

Stay Informed about Industry Standards:

Keeping abreast of industry standards, best practices, and emerging technologies in the field of solar energy to continuously improve the quality and efficiency of designs.

Environmental and Sustainability Considerations:

Considering environmental impacts and sustainability goals when designing solar energy systems. Maximizing the use of clean, renewable energy sources to reduce carbon footprint and minimize environmental harm.

Quality Assurance and Monitoring:

Implementing quality control measures to ensure that the installation and performance of the solar energy system meet or exceed industry standards. Monitoring system performance over time and providing recommendations for maintenance or upgrades as needed.

Net Metering Process :

• Role: Manage the entire net metering application, approval, and installation process for solar energy systems under NEPRA regulations.
• Key Duties: Prepare and submit documentation to DISCOs (e.g., LESCO, K-Electric) and NEPRA, ensure compliance with technical standards and regulations, and follow up relentlessly to expedite the issuance of the Generation License and meter installation.
• Liaison: Act as the primary point of contact between the company/client and DISCO/NEPRA officials.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: Rs40,000.00 - Rs60,000.00 per month

Work Location: In person
