PhD Position in Digital Substation of the Future for Modern Power Grids
1 maand geleden
TU Delft is seeking a talented PhD candidate to contribute to the development of a scalable and modular digital substation architecture for modern power grids. The successful candidate will work on the ESTELAR project, which aims to advance virtualization technologies for digital substations of the future in electrical power grids. The project focuses on three innovative pillars: advanced communication strategies, a robust computational framework, and the transformative Digital Substation of the Future (DSoF) architecture.
Key Responsibilities- Conduct research to develop the DSoF proof of concept and define requirements for a scalable and modular DSoF architecture.
- Develop a digital substation architecture that integrates current substation technologies and advanced monitoring, protection, automation, and control through IEC61850 communications, digital twinning, and virtualized Protection, Automation, and Control (vPAC).
- Collaborate with industry partners to link real-world challenges to fundamental research questions.
- Master's and Bachelor's degree in a highly quantitative and analytical discipline (electrical engineering with an emphasis on power systems, telecommunications, and/or computer science).
- Excellent academic record (grades of B or higher).
- Excellent analytical and writing skills.
- Very good command of English.
- Ability to read and critically analyze power systems / computer science / mathematics papers.
- Strong knowledge of power system automation, communication standards and protocols, and hardware-in-the-loop simulations.
- Strong knowledge of mathematics including differential algebraic equations, discrete systems, and probability theory and statistics.
