Generation

Comprehensive services for the design, construction and refurbishment of generation schemes. The ElectroNet Generation team takes a responsive, customer-first approach to generation projects. We are highly experienced across hydro control and protection design, wind and solar farm design, and generator and transformer specification.

Our detailed design and engineering teams work closely with the rest of our business, drawing on in-house expertise from our Analysis, Electrical Safety, and Communications Control & Instrumentation areas, to provide thorough and in-depth design. Our clients can expect high-quality results and consistent, timely communication throughout the project life cycle.

Additionally, we can support and inform your business decisions with data-driven network modelling and feasibility studies. Our analysis team can also provide customised advice on plant efficiency and location.
