In the power generation, manufacturing, and heavy industry sectors, well-functioning electrical power systems are crucial to a wide range of processes. Due to the complexity and scale of modern industry's power requirements, it's often not feasible to have sufficient in-house technical expertise for every detail of a project. This is where…

Nuclear power has always been controversial, smeared by association with nuclear weapons, and nuclear power accidents, while extremely rare, have the potential to cause far-reaching and long-term devastation. (more…)

Electrical Front End Engineering Design (electrical FEED) is an important approach to engineering design, adopted before procurement and construction to plan a project in detail and manage costs prior to submitting a tender package to vendors. Electrical FEED is highly cost-effective: in studies, although electrical FEED has accounted for approximately 2…

Many of our new clients contact us as in panic because of a major unplanned production outage due to power loss, however we have found that all of these unplanned outages could have been avoided. A power system study consists of a series of investigations that are carried out to ascertain…
