Ben Henson

I am a results-focused engineering professional with a record of success completing short / long-range planning of electric power distribution and bulk transmission systems. I am efficient at implementing engineering principles, applicable policies, codes, and industry standards.

At Mitsubishi Electric Power Products and NEI Electric Power Engineering, I conducted advanced power system studies and facility-level interconnection work, using tools such as PSS/E, PowerFactory, ETAP and Python to perform stability, load-flow and transient analyses and to develop automated reporting tools.

While at Tri-State Generation and Transmission and Stewart Engineering, I performed bulk transmission and distribution system studies, developed relay settings and protection coordination, maintained modeling databases, and prepared WECC-compliant steady-state submissions using Milsoft, PSS/E and PSLF.

I stay well-versed in NERC and FERC planning standards, deliver clear technical documentation and presentations, and adapt quickly to new challenges. I seek to apply my expertise in interconnection and transmission planning to projects that value reliable, compliant, and data-driven solutions.
