Mission
Technical ownership of the digital (OT) scope of renewable energy plants (PV, BESS and hybrid PV+BESS): SCADA, communications network, sensing and instrumentation, and plant control systems. Defines the digital architecture and ensures its design, integration, commissioning and operational performance throughout the whole plant lifecycle, coordinating suppliers, integrators and the company's internal technical departments, and acting as the interface with EPC contractors, the control center, OT cybersecurity, corporate IT, the Utility and the System Operator.
Responsibilities
Act as technical owner of the digital scope of renewable energy plants (PV, BESS and hybrid PV+BESS; wind when required): SCADA, communications network, sensing and control systems. Coordinate suppliers, integrators and internal technical departments (influencing and steering without direct management of a technical team) throughout the plant lifecycle:
• Define the digital architecture of the plant (SCADA, plant controller/PPC, EMS, communications network,
sensors and instrumentation), ensuring consistency across PV, BESS and substation systems from concept to operation.
• Develop and review the digital engineering in all project phases (conceptual, basic, detailed and as-built): architectures, technical specifications, signal lists, I/O and network drawings, according to monitoring, control and grid code requirements.
• Communications network design and engineering: OT LAN/WAN topology, redundancy, switches, gateways, signal concentrators, protocol converters, time synchronization and remote connectivity to the control center.
• Define sensing and instrumentation requirements (meteorological stations, energy meters, field sensors, BESS and environmental signals, integration of fire and safety signals) and data quality criteria.
• Interface and protocol definition (Modbus, DNP3, IEC-104, IEC-61850, OPC) between plant systems, BESS subsystems (BMS, PCS,
