Hello! I'm Berit Manser, a GIS/Data analyst at TRC Companies - recently acquired by WSP, optimizing the electric grid with demand response and clean energy transition programs. My job is a unique balance of the spatial analysis for grid optimization and siting, as well as modeling techniques for electric load forecasting, what-if scenarios with the incoming flux of data centers, and more. 

My work week always leaves me surprised with what kinds of projects I get to be a part of. From calculating baselines and and savings from a demand response event, to siting for Hydrogen Hub and Nuclear Power Plants, and creating wildfire resilience plans for tribal communities, I'm constantly learning about different fields and applying my skills in new ways.
