Grid connection engineering and commissioning for renewable energy projects
EPEC Group designs and commissions high-voltage grid connections for inverter-based renewable systems across Australia. The company's tech stack—PSCAD, PSS/E, PowerFactory for power system modeling, plus SCADA platforms (Ignition, IEC 61850, DNP3)—reflects deep electrical engineering maturity. Active hiring skews senior (5 of 9 roles) and engineering-focused (6 of 9), with SCADA enablement and substation control systems dominating their project pipeline, suggesting sustained scaling in commissioning delivery and automation infrastructure.
EPEC Group is an electrical engineering contractor licensed across Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia, and Western Australia. The company provides end-to-end services for grid-connected renewable projects: pre-connection studies (using industry-standard power system analysis tools), design and construction of HV substations and grid connection infrastructure, factory and site commissioning of solar, wind, battery storage, and compensation systems, and ongoing SCADA and monitoring services. They operate under consultancy, EPCM, and full EPC delivery models, managing coordination across client trading desks, market operators, and network service providers. Founded in 2019, the company has grown to 51–200 employees, headquartered in South Brisbane.
