You can try below:

1. Install Postgresql ODBC driver .

2. Make sure your system recognizes the driver. For example, if your system is Windows then add DSN in the ODBC Datasource Admin .

   3. Then try executing the code(Though I haven't tested it from my end). You can store the user id and password in a config file.

    $DBConnectionString = "Driver={PostgreSQL Unicode(x64)}:Server=<server>;Port=<port>;Database=$MyDB;Uid=<userid>;Pwd=<pass>;" $DBConn = New-Object System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection; $DBConn.ConnectionString = $DBConnectionString; $DBConn.Open(); $DBCmd = $DBConn.CreateCommand(); $DBCmd.CommandText = "<query1>;<query2>;"; $DBCmd.ExecuteReader(); $DBConn.Close();
