Conceptual Design & Scope Definition
Taking the right decisions for your new energy infrastructure projects requires thorough preparation.
A feasibility study should consider several design options, choosing the best solution is a task that should not be underestimated. KEMA can help you to elaborate the options in order to make the optimal decision.
KEMA provides worldwide consultancy services in conceptual and preliminary design of energy infrastructure projects plus scope definition. Our expertise is solidly based on more than 80 years of experience. KEMA is the co-originator of one of world’s most reliable electricity infrastructures in one of world’s most densely populated areas, the Netherlands.
KEMA’s team of experienced consultants has knowledge and know-how of:
transmission and distribution networks
substations and substation equipment
overhead line and cable connections
automation, protection and control systems
environmental impact of electricity infrastructures
energy economics including cost engineering and time planning.
KEMA’s team of consultants combines this knowledge with the perseverance to find tailor made solutions for your electricity infrastructure.
Irrespective of the electricity infrastructure's size, complexity, voltage level and ambient conditions we are convinced that different circumstances require different solutions. Therefore it is always our sustained effort to find the optimum, which is not necessarily the standard.
Deliverables include:
feasibility studies up to any required level of detail
conceptual design studies with multiple financial and technical scenarios
elaboration of preliminary designs
evaluation and identification of the most suitable option
scope definitions for tendering packages.
As a result you will be provided with a well-founded basis for the optimum solutions.
Examples of contracts comprising conceptual and, preliminary design and scope definitions are:
design of the electricity infrastructure of The World Islands, Dubai UAE
design of the BI-Pole tower resulting in low magnetic fields (Wintrack)
consultancy services for the building of a MV short circuit laboratory, Ormazabal, Spain
