Wind Power Generation
- Wind resource, topography, access, and environmental conditions determine whether a site is suitable for wind generation.
- Reliability depends on grid configuration, protection, maintenance, and any backup or storage arrangements. Distributed generation does not eliminate outage risk.
- Continued supply during grid disturbances requires appropriate system design and operating arrangements.
- For power-intensive infrastructure, assess the generation profile against demand, power quality, and monitoring requirements.
- Transmission and distribution losses, substation needs, interconnection costs, and civil works must be evaluated for each project.
- Land rights, permitting, transport access, and local implementation conditions should be reviewed early.
- Operating flexibility and automation depend on equipment, controls, and grid requirements and should be evaluated with qualified technical partners.
Hydroelectric Power Generation
Tidal power
Tidal power opportunities require site-specific assessment of the marine resource, technology, environmental approvals, construction requirements, grid connection, and project economics.
Dam and diversion hydropower
Hydropower assessment considers water availability, seasonal flow, civil works, environmental approvals, grid connection, and site-specific economics. The development approach should reflect local resource conditions and the requirements of the intended electricity user.
Solar Power Generation
Ground-mounted solar PV
Ground-mounted photovoltaic projects require assessment of solar resource, land use, grid access, environmental conditions, and delivery requirements. For data center applications, the output profile should be considered alongside the full electricity supply and resilience plan.
Rooftop solar PV
Rooftop photovoltaic projects use existing roof space for on-site electricity generation. Project assessment should consider roof condition and structural suitability, available area, solar resource, grid connection, operating requirements, and project economics.
For power-intensive facilities, the generation profile should be evaluated alongside the broader electricity supply and resilience plan.
