UTILITY ENERGY MANAGEMENT
BVR’s deep energy experience includes designing sophisticated protection and control schemes for utilities with low, medium and high voltages and knowledge of closed loop systems, microgrids, multiple system integration, protective relay and controls. Our team works with electrical utility system programs, emphasizing interconnection, and helped write interconnection standards for IEEE, CEC, CPUC, MDPU, FERC and NYSPC, as well as interconnection agreements for thousands of MW of renewable and fossil generation. We have expertise in system protection and coordination, system modeling, power flow modeling, contingency analysis, and short circuit analysis for large facilities, distribution and transmission grids.
WATER RESOURCES
BVR’s Water Resources group is made up of former water and wastewater utility directors and managers, O&M service providers and engineers that have successfully owned, designed, operated, and maintained water and wastewater pumping, treatment, transmission, distribution and collection facilities and systems. Ideally, we view water as a closed loop system targeting 100% reuse. Our goal is to see this realized throughout the US and globally as well.
