Energy Supply and Environmental Controls
For over 20 years, electric and gas utilities and research organizations
have relied on BKi for strategic evaluation of emerging technologies.
From power generation to carbon sequestration, our engineers can
help you develop and implement programs that expand market options
and improve economic and environmental performance. In addition
to planning and analysis, we also offer a full range of services
to help you meet your technical communication and public outreach
needs. Sample projects include:
-
Planning, management, and communication support for major
multi-stakeholder initiatives in advanced coal power plants
and CO2 capture and storage, helping create affordable
electricity supply options that curb global climate change
-
Development of consensus-based "roadmaps" for long-term
RD&D on advanced coal, nuclear, renewable, and distributed
generating technologies, and also for fuel cell electric vehicle
refueling infrastructure
-
Assessment of the impacts on U.S. water resources of projected
growth in generation capacity and changes in preferred power
plant types and cooling water regulations
-
Development of best-practices for boiler condition assessment
and evaluation of seam-welded high-energy piping
-
Formulation of guidelines for transferring environment, health,
and safety business practices from non-utility industries
to the electric power industry
-
Identification of successful approaches to building community
support for new power projects
-
Cost/benefit analysis tools for new power production and
environmental control products and practices
-
Editing major industry reports on such topics as the in-service
performance and reliability of advanced gas turbines, boiler
heat rate monitoring, NOx control and prevention
of adverse O&M impacts, electrostatic precipitator optimization,
advanced controls for boiler sootblowing, and measurement
and control of power plant air toxic emissions
