Technical experience should include high-voltage line and substation design review, protection and control interfaces, route alternatives, constructability, commissioning and operational readiness.
Commercial experience should include investment estimates, project budgets, EPC pricing, cost benchmarking, contingencies, owner’s costs, schedule risk, lifecycle economics, revenue forecasts, cost-of-service models, merchant exposure, congestion value, basis risk, ancillary services and tax-credit-sensitive renewable or storage economics.
Hands-on experience with U.S. infrastructure development and construction, including permitting, environmental studies, rights-of-way, land acquisition, utility coordination, procurement, EPC contracting and change-order management.
Experience with interconnection agreements, transmission service agreements, O&M arrangements, owner’s engineer scopes, joint development agreements, acquisitions and utility coordination documentation is also expected.
Experience with U.S. transmission assets, competitive transmission processes, utility partnerships, merchant transmission concepts, regulated infrastructure investments, M&A or commercial advisory mandates will be highly valued.
