Solar System Design & Engineering • Designed and optimized grid-tied, off-grid, and hybrid solar systems (residential to utility-scale) using PVsyst, Helioscope, ETAP, and AutoCAD, ensuring maximum energy yield and cost efficiency. • Developed electrical schematics, single-line diagrams (SLD), and PV layouts, performing shadow analysis and system sizing to meet client specifications. • Evaluated battery storage solutions (Li-ion, AGM, Gel) for backup systems, calculating lifecycle costs and ROI to guide client decisions. Financial & Technical Feasibility • Conducted LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) and payback period analyses based on regional tariffs, reducing client payback periods by 15– 20% through system optimization. • Quantified CO2 savings and prepared sustainability reports. • Led material procurement, collaborating with vendors to source cost-effective components while adhering to NEC, IEC, and local regulations. Project Execution & Compliance • Spearheaded on-site surveys to plan cable routing, inverter placement, and grounding systems, minimizing installation delays by 30%. • Supervised 10+ electricians during installations, ensuring safety and quality standards. • Partnered with project managers to align designs with budget and timeline constraints, delivering cost savings per project. Electrical Regulation & Grid Compliance • In-depth knowledge of local electrical networks, Grid Codes, and PoCC standards. • Lead grid connection applications and design PV systems across net-metering, self-consumption, captive, and BESS configurations. • Interpret and apply relevant IEC, BS, and IEEE standards for both on- and off-grid systems. Proposal Stage Design • Conduct site visits and desktop assessments to inform preliminary designs. • Analyze RFPs and generate optimized, cost-effective PV design solutions. • Prepare preliminary layouts, SLDs, energy yield estimates (via PVsyst), and indicative BOQs.
