JOB SUMMARY:

The EIC houses the Duke Energy eGRID — a 15-megawatt hardware-in-the-loop grid simulator capable of emulating the electrical grid of any region in the world — and the nation's most advanced wind-turbine drivetrain testing facility.

This position is funded through the NSF Grid Modernization Engine in the Carolinas, an NSF Regional Innovation Engines award led by UNC Charlotte with Clemson University as a founding core partner.
