Powering the Future of Energy Through Expertise and Innovation
The energy industry is undergoing significant transformation, with organizations working to maintain reliability, modernize infrastructure, strengthen IT environments, and meet rising regulatory and sustainability expectations.
We partner with utilities, power producers, and energy suppliers to deliver integrated engineering, IT, operational, and modernization support that enhances performance and builds resilient, future-ready systems.
Areas of Focus
We have partnered with clients across the energy value chain, from nuclear and hydroelectric power generation to utilities, grid modernization, and oil and gas infrastructure. Our teams bring engineering depth, operational insight, and regulatory understanding to help you modernize systems, strengthen reliability, and advance critical energy initiatives.
Commercial Nuclear Power Generation
We support utilities and EPC firms across major nuclear technologies, including Light Water Reactors (LWRs) and CANDU systems. We provide engineering and modernization services for life-extension programs and power updates, outage and refuelling, safety system upgrades, and regulatory and environmental compliance.
Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Micro Modular Reactors (MMRs)
Accelerate deployment of next-generation nuclear technologies designed for flexible, distributed power generation with our support. We deliver design and integration services, modular construction strategies, balance-of-plant engineering, and digital twin modeling to improve system performance throughout the lifecycle.
Domestic Nuclear Supply Chain Support
We support energy independence through engineering and operational expertise across the nuclear fuel cycle. We provide capabilities in mining and milling, conversion and enrichment technologies, fuel fabrication, quality assurance, and skilled support for critical supply chain operations.
Hydro Power Generation
We deliver engineering and modernization services that improve the efficiency, reliability, and sustainability of hydroelectric facilities. Our work includes turbine and generator upgrades, digital monitoring and automation enhancements, and structural engineering support for dam safety and compliance.
Fossil Fuel Power Generation
We support coal and natural gas facilities with engineering and consulting services that enhance operational performance, strengthen compliance, and reduce environmental impact. Our services include plant modernization, emissions abatement, turbine and boiler optimization, and digital twin-enabled asset management.
Utilities and Grid Modernization
We partner with utilities to advance end-to-end solutions that strengthen grid performance and reliability. We support grid planning and protection, SCADA and EMS modernization, cybersecurity enhancements, transmission and distribution engineering, and integration of Distributed Energy Resources and electrification infrastructure.
Oil & Gas: Midstream, Downstream, and Refining
We provide engineering and technical services across midstream and downstream operations, including pipeline upgrades for hydrogen blending and renewable natural gas, LNG infrastructure and export terminal engineering, refinery modernization, emissions abatement, and digital twin-enabled performance optimization.
Digital Transformation in Energy
The energy sector is increasingly dependent on advanced digital technologies to improve reliability, efficiency, and resilience. We partner with utilities and energy providers to help build next-generation, data-driven operations by integrating IoT, automation, robotics, AI, cybersecurity, and real-time analytics into critical systems. By aligning people, processes, and technology, we support modernization efforts that create adaptable, future-ready energy environments.
