Engineering Energy

Engineering the Future of Energy

We support the entire energy lifecycle, delivering innovative and resilient solutions for conventional power generation, renewable energy development and the transmission and distribution infrastructure that connects them. Our multidisciplinary teams work with utilities, developers and industrial clients to design, permit and build the systems that will power communities across the United States.

Full Service for a Diverse Energy Portfolio

The energy landscape is changing fast. For that reason, our engineering services are designed to meet that challenge, providing solutions for all types of energy sources and infrastructure.

Renewable Energy Development

We are at the forefront of the clean energy revolution, providing site, civil and structural engineering to bring renewable projects to life.

- Our services for utility scale solar farms include comprehensive planning and site feasibility studies, geotechnical analysis for foundation design and civil design for access roads, grading and stormwater management.
- We provide end to end support for wind farm development, from site assessment and environmental compliance to structural design of turbine foundations and civil design of crane pads and access roads for heavy component transport.
- Our expertise extends to hydroelectric power where we assist with dam safety inspections, structural assessments, maintenance and complex hydraulic and hydrological analysis to ensure the long term integrity and performance of these critical assets.

Conventional Power & Substation Engineering

Reliable power generation and distribution depend on robust infrastructure. We provide engineering for the backbone of the electrical grid.

- We support the design and maintenance of conventional power generation facilities, providing structural and civil engineering to ensure safety, efficiency and longevity.
- Our team designs new substations and upgrades existing ones, handling site development, grading and drainage to structural and foundation design for critical equipment.

Transmission & Distribution

A modern grid needs a modern delivery system. We engineer the transmission and distribution networks that deliver power to homes and businesses.

- We perform detailed routing studies and design for overhead and underground transmission and distribution lines, navigating challenging terrain and existing infrastructure.
- We help utilities upgrade aging infrastructure and implement storm hardening solutions to improve grid resilience against extreme weather and other threats.

Permitting for Complex Energy Projects

Energy projects are subject to a complex web of federal, state and local regulations. Navigating this landscape is key to project success. We manage the entire permitting and entitlement process from initial site selection to final approval.

We take care of the site development permits, and we work with local authorities to obtain zoning changes, special use permits and site plan approvals for mission-critical facilities. Our experience with city/municipal and county governments across the country means a smooth and efficient process.

We work with all the necessary agencies, including the EPA and state energy commissions to manage environmental impact assessments, resource surveys, and public engagement. Our proactive approach and deep regulatory knowledge across the U.S. help de-risk projects and accelerate timelines so you can get power to the grid faster.
