Utilities, communities, and energy consumers are actively investigating microgrids as a solution for reaching sustainability, resiliency and cost-certainty objectives. Microgrids support greater levels of intermittent renewable resource integration and enhance energy security for mission-critical facilities and operations.

Black & Veatch provides planning, design, and construction services for microgrids of all sizes and needs, including:

  • Off-grid rural electrification and energy management
  • Community and/or campus-level projects that provide resilient, sustainable, and cost-effective power supply
  • Island systems that boost economic development by reducing dependence on imported fuel and energy and/or replace aging assets
  • Non-transmission alternatives that negate the need for specific transmission upgrades
  • Connected communities and smart cities

Black & Veatch can support solar energy needs for both customer-sited and utility-owned projects. Our goal is to find the best solution to meet the business requirements and operational needs of our clients. A full-service approach unites engineers, consultants, policy experts, construction managers and execution resources to create a tailor-made program to fit your needs.
