Electrical Transmission

Electrical transmission facilities continue to play an important role for our society. They connect us to green energy, power our economy and provide the reliability needed to keep us safe. Our professionals bring the experience, skills and vision you need to make your transmission initiatives successful. Our experience includes from 34.5-kV to 765-kV, ranging from specific connections spanning communities to major programs that cross regions.

We work with you as a partner. Whether we’re considering design options or commissioning finished projects — or anywhere in between — we work to see that you, your customers and communities get safe, reliable, affordable and sustainable power delivery.

Our AC and DC projects can stretch for hundreds of miles at a time or one mile, with sections running overhead, underground or undersea to meet your needs. We work with stakeholders to find appropriate routes. We manage acquisition of easements and rights-of-way. We track and conduct stakeholder involvement. We conduct studies, secure permits, procure materials, manage construction and otherwise handle all aspects of your project. Our services cover civil design, geotechnical evaluations, cable systems, thermal ratings, project development and more. We can be your partner for design-build/engineer-procure-construct (EPC) project delivery or work as program manager to achieve your project goals.

Throughout design our engineers and scientists focus on countless details — structure loads, conductor/cable ampacity, audible noise, sag and tension — to build efficient, reliable system strength. Using our proprietary OneTouchPM application, we track your project’s progress and deliverables to keep you and your stakeholders informed throughout the job.
