New Power Project Development &
Front-End Feasibility
Early-stage technical, interconnection, permitting, and cost clarity to reduce risk and accelerate investment decisions.

Site Assessment & Layout Planning
A project can be perfect on paper and still fail in the dirt. We focus on whether the site actually works for the plant you're trying to build.
Site Due Diligence : Evaluate site access, constructability, logistics, and compatibility with surrounding land use and zoning.
Geotechnical and Grading Interface: Coordinate geotechnical reports, grading concepts, and floodplain considerations with plant layout decisions.
Conceptual GAs and Plot Plans: Develop early site layouts, general arrangements, and plot plans that account for major equipment, laydown, and future expansion.
Access & Construction Logistics: Plan for vehicle access, heavy-lift paths, construction equipment access, and temporary laydown to avoid surprises during execution.
Utilities & AHJ Coordination: Coordinate with local electric, gas, and water utilities and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) to interpret and apply local codes, air/wastewater requirements, and encroachment and connection constraints in the plant design.

Permitting & Environmental Interface
We don't replace your environmental consultant, we make them more effective by ensuring the plant design and environmental strategy are aligned from day one.
Permitting Strategy and Roadmap: Identify key permits and approvals (air, water, noise, encroachments, etc.) and how they interact with project schedule.
Technical Inputs to Permits - Provide plant design data and assumptions needed for air, water: and noise permitting, and support responses to agency questions
MND/EIR and Agency Documentation support - Contribute technical content for MND/EIR (or similar) documents from a plant and utility systems perspective.
Impact Mitigation Strategy - Help define practical design-based mitigations (layout equipment selection, noise control, routing) that can satisfy agencies without blowing up cost.
Stakeholder & Agency Interface - Participate in technical discussions with local agencies, legal leams and stakeholders to keep design and permitting aligned.

Grid, Fuel & Water Interconnections
Interconnection & Utilities
Electrical Interconnection Screening: Early evaluation of transmission capacity, constraints, and potential upgrade triggers, with direct coordination with ISO/RTOs and local utilities.
Interconnection Applications & Studies: Technical support for application packages and review of utility / ISO study results to understand cost, schedule, and risk impacts.
Fuel Gas Supply
Gas Supply Option Evaluation : Review supply options, pressure, and capacity to confirm viability for the proposed plant configuration.
Utility & Midstream Coordination: Interface with gas utilities and midstream providers on tie-in points, metering, and pressure control requirements.
Tie-in Routing and Concepts: High-level routing, tie-in concepts, and pressure-control strategies suitable for early-stage planning and cost estimates.
Water Supply & Wastewater Handling
Water Source Evaluation: Assess potable, process, and cooling water sources and constraints.
Water Balance & Demand Estimates: Develop raw and demineralized water demand estimates and project water balance for concept-level design.
Wastewater, Blowdown & Stormwater: Define conceptual strategies for wastewater, blowdown, and stormwater handling and coordinate with municipal and industrial providers

Major Equipment Strategy
Major equipment often sets the critical path of a new project. We help you choose the right technology and supplier-and lock in a realistic plan to get it on-site when you need it.
OEM Screening & Long-Lead Strategy: Identify and pre-screen major equipment OEMs (turbines, HRSGs, BESS, transformers, solar racking/panels, etc.) and align procurement with schedule constraints.
Technical Specifications & RFQs: Develop technical specifications and datasheets that clearly define performance, interfaces, and scope for RFOs.
Bid Evaluation & Negotiations Support: Provide technical support to compare bids, clarify exceptions, and support contract negotiations from the owner's perspective.
Conceptual Plant Configuration: Perform high-level technology and configuration screening, including simple performance and cost comparisons, to support early investment decisions.
Bring Clarity to Your Power Project
Whether you’re evaluating a new development or assessing an existing asset, early decisions drive long-term outcomes. We help identify constraints, risks, and realistic paths forward—before capital is committed.
