Job Description
Timeline: Summer 2024, starting May / June 2024 for 3-4 months
Team & Technology: Within the Power Solutions division based in Farmington Hills MI, Bosch is leveraging our technology leadership and manufacturing scale to accelerate the global clean energy transformation. Bosch is “All in on Hydrogen”, which is a key piece of the puzzle to transform hard-to-decarbonize sectors of the economy, such as heavy-duty transportation, steel & cement production, chemical refineries, fertilizer production, rail, and marine. We are working on clean hydrogen production technologies with an initial focus on the heart of the electrolysis system, the Hydrogen Electrolyzer stack.
Job Responsibilities: The intermittency and availability of renewable energy resources such as solar and wind energy create significant challenges for the operation of hydrogen electrolyzer stacks. This internship will support the development of specific electricity input requirements for the Bosch electrolyzer stack. In addition to your technical expertise, we are looking for future engineers who can clearly and simply communicate complex technical concepts, and who can effectively collaborate with a global team. In this internship, you will:
Perform a literature review of relevant publicly available analyses of integration of Hydrogen Electrolyzers with renewable energy systems.
Identify and process publicly available datasets for wind and solar energy generation.
Help develop a list of scenarios to be simulated and analyzed for the North American market (e.g.: energy sources (solar, wind, grid, or a combination thereof), energy storage, plant locations, plant configuration, etc.)
Use Bosch and external simulation tools to develop representative electricity input profiles (“duty cycles") for these scenarios.
Quantify the impact of these representative duty cycles on electrolyzer stack and system operation (e.g.: load transients, thermal conditions, efficiency)
Explore and quantify impacts of pairing electrolyzer systems with energy storage systems, such as stationary battery storage systems.
Share knowledge by clearly articulating work and ideas to fellow engineers. Generate insights and report to key decision makers.
Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications:
Currently pursuing or completed a graduate degree in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or related technical field with a focus on renewable energy, electrochemistry, or process simulation
Working Knowledge/Experience with Hydrogen Electrolyzer stacks or systems
Experience analyzing simulation results, interpreting data, and deriving meaningful conclusions
Experience processing and visualizing large datasets in Matlab or Python
Experience with renewable energy analysis
