Power Systems Design Engineer / Power Industry Expert – Hybrid Inverter Backup Power Ended
About the job
We are working on a project utilizing hybrid inverters with backup battery storage to bring frequency regulation to the grid. I am looking for a designer to assist in creating a concept hardware schematic as well as power industry experts who can help dissect regulatory and industry hurdles to bringing this project online.
High Level Hardware Requirements:
5 or less assemblies for 5kW-10MW loads
Less than $100 per kW
2 or less enclosures
1 second or less reporting interval
Safe for installation in a building
Fully modular
Simple installation
Use existing parts and manufactures
Detailed Hardware Requirements:
1. System Capacity & Configuration
Power range: Supports 5 kW to 10 MW installations.
Assemblies: 5 or fewer assemblies to cover the full range (scalable/modular design).
Cost target: Less than $100 per kW (hardware cost).
2. Physical & Structural
Enclosures: Maximum 2 enclosures per system (e.g., combined inverter + batteries in one, auxiliary in another if needed).
Form factor: Must fit in building-compatible footprints (meets local building codes for indoor/outdoor placement).
Modularity: Fully modular design — scalable up or down by adding/removing standardized modules.
3. Performance
Reporting: 1-second or faster data acquisition and communication interval for critical metrics (power, status, alarms).
Runtime: Minimum 5-minute full-load backup at rated power.
Inverter type: Hybrid inverter (grid + battery management i... read more

4. Installation & Integration
Installation: Simple installation, minimal field assembly (plug-and-play wherever possible).
Parts sourcing: Use existing, commercially available components from established manufacturers (no custom electronics or exotic parts).
Compliance: Must meet UL, NEC, ANSI, and relevant building codes for safe installation.
5. Safety & Reliability
Enclosure rating: NEMA 3R or higher for outdoor or building-adjacent installation.
Protections: Overcurrent, surge, arc-flash, and thermal protections integrated.
Monitoring: Local and remote monitoring with fail-safe alarms. read less
