Vacancy Description

Description

The Grid Optimization and Control Group at the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) is looking for a highly motivated intern to join our team and support the development of composite data center load models for transmission planning studies. The internship will focus on building and validating both detailed EMT (electromagnetic transient) models and RMS-based phasor models to represent the unique characteristics of modern data centers. With the rapid growth of data centers as critical loads on the grid, this work will directly contribute to improving reliability, stability, and protection strategies for transmission systems.

Main job duties include:

  • Gather and analyze technical data on data center electrical architecture, including UPS systems, PDUs, cooling systems, and backup generation
  • Develop and validate component-level models (e.g., UPS with PFC, PDU, VFD), and build a composite data cente...
