Power Generation and Transmission

The growing demand in electric power coupled with the global energy transition to renewables and other non-fossil energy sources presents many challenges for power generation and transmission projects. The transformation of the utilities infrastructure to meet these demands is capital intensive and power companies will be challenged to do this efficiently and effectively. When in operation, power plants and transmission grids will continue to absorb capital for sustaining energy delivery; therefore, electric utilities must also prioritize capital competitiveness throughout the entire asset life cycle in ways that optimize the levelized cost of energy (LCOE).

Achieving capital competitiveness—the core of IPA’s mission and work for over 30 years—requires the use of reliable industry project data and modeling in the investment decision-making process. It also requires a good understanding of project shaping and risks, project readiness, and adequate target setting, supported by an investment decision-making process that can respond quickly to the market environment and other external factors.

Since 1987, IPA has been a trusted advisor to companies in all energy sectors, and we have been at the forefront of the energy transition within the capital projects industry. We have analyzed and benchmarked power generation and transmission projects for many years and will continue to do so as energy utilities make the transition to renewables.
