Power Distribution Engineering & Design

PowerSecure specializes in bespoke energy solutions — complete with the engineering, design, financing, planning and procurement needed to bring your emergency backup power or microgrid system online.

Whether using conventional energy sources, renewable power or a combination of both, our end-to-end power distribution engineering solutions also come with post-installation monitoring and maintenance to help ensure your organization can continue powering its operations around the clock — regardless of grid conditions.

Technology

PowerSecure is committed to the reliability of our power distribution engineering. Our dedication to excellence begins with high-performance natural gas engines and Volvo diesel engines that meet or exceed EPA Tier 4 Final requirements, the cleanest diesel engines available. We then integrate engines (either diesel or natural gas options) into our PowerBlock® with a generator, controls, switchgear, integral fuel and DEF tanks, and a sound-attenuating enclosure. Each PowerBlock can house one to six generators rated 625kW. The PowerBlock can be installed as a standby generator or as the centerpiece of an advanced microgrid that can include PV, fuel cells, battery storage and legacy assets such as turbines. Additional PowerBlock solutions include the PowerBlock mobile unit and our modular PowerBlock3®.

Our team of experts can also deliver facility-scale energy-efficient engineering and design. We offer end-to-end development, construction and implementation of your solutions and can integrate the energy efficiency projects into your microgrid system.

Process

Our 360 integrated delivery model showcases our end-to-end expertise: from initial contact and concept planning to power system design and development to microgrid engineering and construction. Our turnkey solutions also include post-installation support, with real-time energy system monitoring and on-site maintenance to help your facility remain operational — even during grid outages.

Throughout this entire microgrid engineering and installation process, we actively involve our product innovators, engineers, commissioning, market analysts and energy efficiency experts at the right time as we build, deliver and manage your solution. This diverse range of expertise allows us to go beyond providing traditional emergency backup power.

From Apple HQ to HG&E Electric, we help commercial and industrial stakeholders reduce their environmental impact by integrating green technologies such as on-site battery storage, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and energy efficiency upgrades. In fact, many of our clients achieve net carbon zero sustainability, allowing them to easily meet (and surpass) local, state and federal air quality control regulations.
