While the traditional attributes of the power industry—monopoly status, government ownership, and government regulations—are yielding to free-market forces in many areas of the world, the future of the global power industry will continue to be driven by competition, privatization, and deregulation. Global competition, increasing customer demands, capital liquidity, the price of fuel, pending needs to relieve transportation constraints for fuel and electric transmission, and environmental concerns are all driving forces that, when coupled with industry deregulation, are creating great change. For assets generating electricity from fossil fuels, such change can be significant considering energy legislation, social/environmental pressures, and worldwide fuel price fluctuation.

Our fleet optimization tools for thermal plants can help address this need for change. Whether your asset is an IOU, IPP, industrial, municipal, or public power, our services are designed to accommodate your situation and provide the most accurate and relevant comparisons and improvement methodologies. By considering the uniqueness of each technology type—conventional steam or combined cycle, simple cycle, and cogeneration (combined heat and power)—we use our data to drive analysis and action with practical solutions. Explore our services to the left to see how we might help you with your monitoring, measurement, or performance improvement efforts.
