EPE recognizes the need to update current transmission and distribution technologies as power suppliers adapt to the rapidly changing market. As distributed renewable sources of electricity become more prevalent in the United States, the existing infrastructure that transmits and distributes electricity will require evaluation and upgrades to accommodate these new sources of energy. Decisions impacting the transmission and distribution networks made today will affect how power is supplied for decades to follow. Proper transmission and distribution system planning, which considers the dynamic energy market, is required to ensure capital projects are executed with consideration of future growth of distributed sources.
The EPE team has extensive expertise in analyzing transmission deliverability, with emphasis on system reliability and grid modernization. Our engineers provide customers with detailed transmission analysis studies which identify possible generation interconnection fatal flaws and ensure reliable integration of energy resources.
EPE utilizes an extensive suite of enterprise-based power system software, including our proprietary Grid Analytics software, to conduct client-specific studies. The studies support ROI analysis, budget planning, regulatory filings, and legal testimony, among others. EPE works with our clients to support system operation planning, maintenance, and protection from end to end. Our expansive software tools, coupled with our engineering expertise, offer our clients an unparalleled resource to address any transmission and distribution system challenge.
