CONSULTANCY SERVICES WITHIN POWER TRANSMISSION

A reliable supply of electricity is a precondition to ensuring industrial competitiveness and to upholding modern society. In the future, the production of electricity will be based on investments in renewable energy. The worldwide recognition of the need to focus on our environment, and the emerging shift in consumer preferences and awareness, requires national as well as regional infrastructural develop-ment to meet future demands. The ongoing market transition towards renewable energy will require intelligent solutions, implemented at all levels from production all the way to the consumer. The Ramboll approach We have many years of experience within all sectors of industry, power generation, power distribution and transmission, infrastructure, towers, civil works etc. We understand our clients’ needs and are able to supply solutions beyond the scope of high voltage equipment. Utilizing these competencies, Ramboll can offer consulting services related to wind power, urban development, transport & infrastructure, grid connection, power generating plants or refurbishment/green-field power transmission projects. Within power transmission, our competent team can provide consulting services that are independent of suppliers. In a close collaboration with our clients, we design and procure all components with the aim to achieve the optimal technical design at the lowest possible cost. We carry out Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) and Social Impact Assessments (SIA) for international, regional and local clients, financial institutions, private companies and public authorities.
