Your impact

At Jacobs, our Studies Team sits at the forefront of the energy transition, helping clients navigate the technical complexities of transforming and future-proofing power networks across Australia, New Zealand and the wider Asia Pacific region.

As part of the Jacobs Transmission & Distribution business, our multidisciplinary Studies Team brings together specialist expertise in:

Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Studies

Earthing Studies

Together, we support developers, utilities, transmission and distribution network service providers, renewable energy companies, asset owners and large industrial customers in delivering reliable, secure and sustainable energy infrastructure.

Our team provides industry-leading technical consulting services across the project lifecycle, from early feasibility and development through to market and commercial assessments, network connection studies, detailed design support, compliance assessment, commissioning, asset performance and future network planning. Working closely with our Markets Advisory specialists, we help clients evaluate project viability, market participation opportunities and investment decisions for generation, storage and transmission developments.

We are involved in some of the region's most significant energy projects including renewable generation, battery energy storage systems (BESS), transmission infrastructure, hydrogen developments, network augmentation programs and emerging electrification opportunities. Our work spans feasibility studies, due diligence assessments, marginal loss factor (MLF) analysis, network connection studies, system strength assessments and long-term network planning.

Working closely with our broader Energy & Power business, we combine deep technical expertise with global experience to deliver integrated solutions that support our clients' Net Zero ambitions and the ongoing transformation of the electricity sector.

Team & Capability Development

Mentor and support the development of emerging engineers.

Contribute to technical excellence initiatives across the Studies Team.

Support capability growth across Power System Advisory, EMT and Earthing disciplines.

Share knowledge and lessons learned across the broader Jacobs network.

Here's what you'll need
