Master's Thesis: Phase-Shifting Transformers | Masterarbeit Phase-Shifting-Transformers (m/w/d)

Job Summary

This Master's thesis opportunity focuses on researching and developing innovative solutions for the energy transition within the power grid, specifically investigating the potential of Phase-Shifting Transformers (PST) in 110-kV networks to reduce the need for conventional grid expansion. The role involves analyzing the technical, planning, and economic aspects of PST technology to create a robust decision-making basis for its implementation in grid planning and operation. Candidates should be students in electrical engineering or a related field, possess strong analytical skills, and have an interest in grid planning and system technology. This is an excellent chance to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting, contribute to a highly relevant topic for the energy transition, and gain hands-on experience with real grid models and data within Germany's largest regional grid operator, a subsidiary of E.ON.
