Fossil and Coal Energy
Experience in the construction and retrofitting of fossil generation
We have broad experience in the construction and retrofitting of fossil generation. Our team has provided oversight, project management, procurement and regulatory advice on large, complex, high-profile coal, gas and cogeneration projects, from brownfield equipment retrofits to greenfield new generation.
Here is an example of the services we have provided in this industry:
