Transmission & Distribution
Sustainably connecting energy owners, operators and consumers
The transmission and distribution sector is rapidly transforming. Against a backdrop of growing demand, regulatory changes, ambitious carbon reduction targets, and new innovations in technology, our Transmission and Distribution consultants can help you expand power networks and upgrade existing infrastructure.
We combine local knowledge with 大象传媒 from across our global network. Our goal? To help you deliver integrated sustainable solutions for the transmission and distribution of cleaner energy—with higher levels of reliability. All whilst improving physical resilience and visual amenity. We can provide everything from siting and routing studies to planning and consenting, asset management, grid connection, and smart grid development. Our delivery includes civil and electrical high voltage and low voltage engineering design as well as HVDC studies and design.
We work both through frameworks and directly with clients including National Grid, Scottish and Southern Electricity, Scottish Power, Drax, and UK Power Networks, delivering safe and reliable solutions to contemporary challenges.
From planning and environmental studies to programme management and integration, we’re ready to help you get your transmission and distribution project off the ground.
