From the core: navigating thermal energy challenges
Thermal power plants continue to face scrutiny on environmental impacts, on water resource concerns, economic challenges for existing plants, and location limitations for geothermal opportunities. The role of thermal power generation is shifting like never before, however. Once it provided baseload electricity for many markets. Now, with the integration of renewables, thermal power plays a major role in steadying a grid. It is a reliable backbone for energy generation. Trends in the market are driving thermal power generation to be more cost-effective and generating companies want to make the most of their assets and do so in a way that moves away from carbon-intensive technologies, towards cleaner fuels and are socially responsible. Evolving government regulations are having a positive impact on how we design and construct thermal plants, too.
Our commitment to tackling climate change, to cleaner and more affordable thermal power, pushes us to challenge the status quo—the conventional ways thermal power generating plants used to be designed, built, and operated. Today, modern thermal power stations must be agile and flexible to meet the demands of the changing market. That's what successful energy projects now must deliver: the right technology, together with the best fuel source, high efficiency, and a design that meets current energy, environmental, and social regulations. All this, and strong project economics, too.
Thermal power expertise and capabilities
Owner’s engineer & independent engineer
Support is critical during the design and construction phases. Plants must be designed and constructed to meet the technical requirements of applicable contracts. You need a partner who'll be a member of your cohesive team, verifying designs, monitoring construction, and proactively addressing issues. Independent engineer experts for investors and lenders. Lenders want to know that their investments are safe. An assessment conducted by a trusted advisor like us puts them at ease, knowing that the project is technically and financially sound.Emission reduction systems
As mentioned, air pollution standards are becoming increasingly strict. So, generating facilities are constantly searching for more cost-effective methods to reduce emissions to achieve compliance. Our environmental engineers are well-versed in emissions reduction. We maintain a technology-neutral position, facilitating independent reviews and unbiased advice regarding system selection. We can help with flue gas desulfurization, NOx selective catalytic reduction, particulate matter, acid mist reduction, mercury control, and carbon capture, and sequestration.Technical advisory and consulting services
The success of a project, from concept development to commercial operation, depends on the effort applied at the front end. Advisory services are the comprehensive insights and solutions that transform projects from initiation to execution, a practice centered in deep industry knowledge and tried-and-tested management consulting approaches and skills. As a partner with the right technical expertise. We will work alongside you, offering support through every phase to ensure your success.Operational performance
Thermal power generation facilities must be reliable and dependable. They need to respond quickly to their market or end-users’ needs, because failing to do so can mean significant penalties or lost revenue. All this requires significant capital investment and a regular stream of sustainable funding to ensure the facility is maintained and able to be reliably dispatched, economically, and safely.
We work with you, on the ground in your facilities. We develop strategic operational performance programs that boost reliability and efficiency, increasing the profitability of your thermal assets. Then, we follow up and support you across the full business life cycle, continually improving your operational performance.
