Job Description :

Power Fundamental Analyst

Location : Houston, Texas

Department : Gas / Power Fundamentals

Reports to : Head of Gas and Power Fundamentals

Role Overview

The Power Fundamental Analyst provides analytical and market research to develop and maintain short-, medium-, and long-term market views across key North American power markets (e.g., ERCOT, PJM, MISO, WECC). The analyst will integrate supply-demand fundamentals, weather, transmission, and fuel market dynamics to generate actionable insights that inform trading strategies, asset dispatch, and portfolio positioning.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain fundamental models for load, generation, renewables, transmission, and fuel dynamics across major ISOs. Monitor and forecast supply / demand balances, reserve margins, congestion, and price formation drivers.
• Analyze generation stack evolution (retirements, additions, outages) and transmission constraints impacting nodal and zonal prices. Develop and continuously refine short- and long-term price forecasts (DA, RT, monthly, seasonal, and forward strips).
• Translate fundamental outlooks into tradable themes and relative value ideas. Quantify sensitivities (e.g., weather, gas prices, renewables output, load growth) on forward curves and spreads.
• Produce concise market commentaries and scenario analyses ahead of key decisions.
• Gather, clean, and manage large datasets from public and proprietary sources. Automate recurring reports and dashboards in Python, SQL, or Power BI to improve decision speed.
• Collaborate with quantitative analysts to bridge fundamental and statistical models. Support calibration of internal valuation models used for structured deals, tolls, and HRCOs.
• Work closely with spec and asset traders, to align market views and exposures.
