Company: Rochester Gas & Electric

Department/Organization: Smart Grids Innovation & Planning III

Location: Maine, NY, CT

The base salary range for this position is $123,879 to $161,042 and isdependent upon experience

Scope of Work - Main duties, settings, geography, reporting relationships, and other relationships:

The NY and ME Grid Model Enhancement Project (GMEP) is a 5-year (2021-2025) project with a CapEx budget of ~45M. GMEP is a cornerstone for grid modernization efforts and is one component of the New York State REV initiative. It has been identified as a significant project within both the 2020 Distribution System Implementation Plan (DSIP) Filing submitted in July 2020, and the 2019 New York Rate Case Joint Proposal approved in November 2020. For Maine, the project has been approved in the CMP rate case.

The GMEP project will enhance the accuracy of the physical and electrical data represented in Avangrid data sources. When complete, the data model will allow for improved analysis, monitoring, control, planning, and forecasting of the Electric Distribution System.

This effort will enhance Distribution Planning and Operations ability to perform core and advanced functions. GMEP will change the processes and responsibilities in all areas of the Company from initial planning through field execution.

The IEDR will be a single statewide platform that securely collects and integrates a large and diverse set of energy-related data. It aims to share meaningful information and insights on New York's energy system, supporting the state's clean energy and climate commitment by providing effective access to useful energy data. The IEDR will inform investment decisions, identify operational inefficiencies, monitor policy effectiveness, promote innovation, and encourage new business models.

The platform will draw data from New York's electric, gas, and steam utilities, as well as other relevant sources, benefiting energy customers across the state. The role of the utility is to provide the data to this platform.

The IEDR development program has an aggressive timeline for achieving its goals, it started in 2021 and it is planned to finish in 2026, although the platform will remain working for decades. Use cases will drive the platform's functionality, ensuring it meets the needs of various stakeholders. Regular meetings, events, and open dialogue with the community are essential to capturing valuable insights and ensuring the IEDR remains a reliable repository of accurate information. Avangrid budget for the project is ~23M of CAPEX.

This position would be responsible for leading the overall GMEP and IEDR initiative in:

  • Establishing a streamlined quality control process to maintain the integrity of the data model from data capture through data analysis.
  • Refining and enhancement of system interfaces (SAP, GIS, CYME, etc.).
