Position Title: Power Modeling Analyst II/III

Department/Location: Financial Services/Bismarck, ND
Company: Basin Electric Power Cooperative

Position Purpose:
Power Modeling Analyst II: This position will analyze market strategies using advanced market simulation software to identify and quantify impacts and support energy position development. This position is responsible for the modification, and maintenance of complex inputs into the simulation model for electricity Regional Transmission Organization (RTO) markets. This position must work closely with several departments within the Cooperative to coordinate and analyze model outputs, including frequent back casting to improve accuracy of delivered outputs. This position will use the model to project energy revenue and costs associated with energy and capacity obligations, including predicting generation from Basin Electric facilities and integrating long-term power contracts, whether purchases or sales, as well as predicting short term balancing needs for the same period. The incumbent will facilitate the integration of model outputs from this process into financial forecasting models for multiple long-term scenario runs, and shorter-term projections.
