Power Generation
Electric power starts with a source of fuel that can be harnessed to create energy. Our clients are served by harnessing our experience, expertise and our proven, defensible processes to achieve their goals in power generation. We deliver a comprehensive range of environmental planning and permitting services in support of siting, permitting, and construction of both renewable resource (natural gas, solar, wind, pumped hydro storage, geothermal), and coal-fired generation projects.
Our staff has provided planning and permitting support for generation projects totaling more than 65,000 megawatts (MW) of capacity. The locations of these facilities have included settings that range from remote and rural areas to densely populated and mixed-use locations.
Our planning process is both defensible and successful. Experience is not limited to the process … it also led to proficiency in relationships with clients and regulators. A clear path leads to clear communication. We know the process and the potential potholes. That is how we can guide you to the successful passage of projects.
We are also experienced in planning and permitting infrastructure associated with power generation, including but not limited to transmission lines and substations.
Power Generation Services
Our project experience includes, but is not limited to:
- Siting and location studies
- Preparation of Environmental Impact Statements (EISs), and Environmental Assessments (EAs)
- Conducting the required interdisciplinary technical investigations (cultural resources, visual, etc.)
- Preparing documents necessary for other, state, municipal, and local permits and approvals for construction
Philosophy
Our experience saves time and money. We understand what works and what does not work. We also have vast experience in the environments that potentially will be affected most by power generation projects. Understanding these concerns and using our processes proactively results in productive solutions.
Affecting change for a positive outcome is what we do. Responsible stewardship is at our core. It’s part of our why—supporting our needs of the future and leaving present environments in better shape than we find them for the next generation.
Harness the power of EPG’s experience, expertise, and processes. EPG will be your pragmatic partner, navigating you through compliance that protects you and the environment.
For your power generation project, don’t settle for sustainability… EPG will make your project thrive.
