In an environment of diminishing mineral resources and increasing environmental awareness, Knight Piésold has taken a lead in identifying and developing opportunities for “green power” generation as an economically attractive renewable energy alternative to fossil fuels. With this, we seek to mitigate the rising cost of thermal power. A further application of alternative energy production lies within power generation for remote mining operations or communities. Our technical expertise comprises the following areas:
- Hydropower (storage, pumped storage, run-of-river)
- Wind power (wind farms on-shore and off-shore, wind-hydro and wind-diesel combinations)
- Solar power
- Wave and tidal power
- Geothermal power
- Energy efficiency, energy audits, strategic energy planning
- Fuel planning and transportation
- Thermal power
- Transmission lines and substations
