Sectors
Where substation design capability is needed.
The engineering discipline is the same across all of them. What changes is the commercial pressure, the standards being worked to, and who is reviewing the output.
Who this suits
Six kinds of client, one specialism.
Particularly suited to clients who need specialist substation design capability without employing or maintaining that capability in-house.
Independent Connection Providers
Specialist substation design capability available per project, without carrying it as permanent overhead. Design produced to the adopting operator’s standards from the start.
Renewable energy developers
Grid connection substations for solar and wind schemes — from the concept arrangement that supports a connection application through to the detailed design.
Battery storage developers
Connection and switching substations for storage sites, including the primary arrangement, protection and control scheming, and the cable design between them.
Engineering consultancies
Specialist substation design capacity that slots into a wider project team — working to your templates, your numbering and your review process.
Developers
On-site and private substations forming part of a wider development, designed and coordinated alongside the rest of the scheme rather than bolted on afterwards.
Utilities & network clients
Design produced to network operator standards, with the documentation and traceability their approval process requires.
Voltage range
11kV to 400kV.
Distribution through to transmission, with the design approach adjusted to the scrutiny each level attracts.
Distribution substations, switchrooms, customer connections
Primary substations, switching stations, generation connections
Bulk supply points, collector substations
Grid supply points, transformer compounds, AIS and GIS bays
Transmission substations and connection infrastructure
