Area 1 Key Activities in Occupational Area:

(Wind Measurements, Resource Assessments & Energy Yield Assessments):

• Wind Measurement & Instrumentation

-Knowledgeable of various instruments and their mounting procedures used for wind and Solar measurements.

- Experienced in managing multiple meteorological Masts & LiDAR , including a development mast and a PCVT mast with over 70 +.

- Handling multiple solar stations, including stand-alone SRS and mounted pyranometer on meteorological mast.

- Capable of creating a one-year time series for an installed LiDAR location using six months of data. This involves utilizing advanced data processing techniques to extrapolate and interpolate the available data to generate a comprehensive time series.
- Working knowledge of performing resource assessments using industry standard tools for filtering the data like WindPRO, Windographer, etc.

- Generation calculation for preliminary site assessment using mast data with different power curve and WTG model. - Knowledgeable about handling uncertainty calculations, AEP estimations, and probability functions associated with them, potential for a given site.
- Knowledgeable about handling uncertainty calculations, AEP estimations, and probability functions associated with them. (P50, P75, P99)

- I can identify optimal locations for PCVT mast installation by analyzing wind patterns and free wind scores.

- I have extensive experience in installing over 20 meteorological masts and multiple solar stations per year, and I always follow best practices to ensure timely installation and adherence to schedules. Additionally, I prioritize safety by considering HSE guidelines and safety rules for both erection and dismantling work

• Pre-bid Support and Project development

-I have experience in providing different Annual Energy Production (AEP) scenarios for wind farm bids and tenders. This involves analyzing various wind turbine power curves and wake-optimized layouts to achieve the P50 AEP, which represents the median annual energy production. Additionally, I have contributed to the development of Time Varying AEP, which involves generating 8760 hourly data for tender submissions.

- As an expert in identifying potential new sites for wind farm and hybrid projects, I take into account various factors during the site selection process. This includes analyzing details of upcoming STU and CTU substations, connectivity, land availability, and competitor details. Based on my analysis, I propose the best potential new sites to the BD team for future development.

- have knowledge of Nodal agency and state government rules for developing a project, considering restricted area MOD zone, and restricted areas and MOD zones. This allows me to provide informed recommendations and ensure that all projects are in compliance with relevant regulations.

• Cash Flow and Budget Management

- Preparing cash flow for future development project and considering existing projectets and cash flow projections for the department. I consider both future development projects and existing running sites to provide accurate and comprehensive recommendations.

• Vendor Selection and Procurement Management

- Expertise in vendor selection and negotiation for installing meteorological masts.

- Experience in preparing work orders for the supply of masts and instruments.

- Skilled in managing invoice clearance and payment follow-up.

- Knowledgeable in managing insurance for wind masts to ensure necessary coverage.

- Ensures all procurement processes are efficient and cost-effective.

- Installed first offshore and onshore LIDAR for FOWIND project provided to NIWE and GWEC. Conducted maintenance work, monitored data, and prepared monthly, weekly, and annual reports.
- Provided training to clients for the installation of ground-based and turbine-mounted LIDAR.
- Monitored clients' met masts during installation and erection work as per IEC standards and prepared mast installation reports.
- Knowledgeable in validating LIDAR and preparing reports. Conducted measurement campaigns with LIDAR and met mast for developing a site with one year of mast data and six months of LIDAR data, creating a one-year time series at LIDAR location.
- Installed turbine-mounted LIDAR for analyzing the wake effect and analyzed the data to provide recommendations for improvements.
- Served as a project coordinator for clients, providing services and managing client relationships to develop business.

Process Control and Product Quality

- Oversaw process control and product quality at Genus, a manufacturer of Plain Circuit Boards (PCBs) for consumer electronics.
- Conducted regular quality checks and implemented quality control procedures to improve product quality.
- Worked with production teams to identify and resolve quality issues.
- Conducted root cause analysis and implemented corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
- Ensured products met customer specifications and regulatory requirements.
- Monitored production data to identify trends and opportunities for improvement.
- Collaborated with cross-functional teams to optimize product quality.
- Conducted final product inspections before shipment to customers.
