Electrical estimating with a wider perspective.

Clarity for renewable energy construction costs.

Connecting electrical scope with context to inform cost decisions before the build.

Renewable Energy System Estimation

Turn system requirements into installed scope.

Scope Connections

Following the power path from system equipment to the grid.

Each connection represents installed quantities and an interface that needs an owner. Estimates must be able to explain all stages of generation and bidirectional flow from the equipment to the grid.

Conceptual solar and storage export pathA PV array exports through its inverter and MV transformer. The battery can both export and charge through its PCS, MV transformer, and the main transformer. The branches meet at MV collection, then connect through a circuit breaker, Gen-Tie, revenue metering, and the point of interconnection to the utility grid.

Unit rates are only a starting point

The same parameters from one project rarely translate into another.

Pile refusal on one site. A longer gen-tie on another. A constrained substation at the point of interconnection.
The estimate needs to explain those differences before the budgets can be compared.

Process

How an estimate is built and reviewed.

An estimating framework not just for managers and directors, but for owners, developers, and project stakeholders at every level. See the process from start to finish, or go straight to the system or cost driver you need.
