GE DC Energy Engineered Site Solutions

Site Specific EngineeringGE Critical Power offers full Engineered Site Solutions ranging from initial site planning up to final provisioning and turn up for installations. Our in house team of engineers, professional installers, and project managers work together to produce the most cost effective, efficient and high quality energy solutions. The process starts with initial site planning by working closely with our clients to optimize the use of energy sources. For off grid applications, minimizing the use of fossil fuels or grid energy sources with the least possible capital expenditure is key. The optimization process includes analysis of local conditions, altitude, latitude, and available solar and wind energy as well as a determination of the most appropriate energy conversion and management equipment, energy storage, third party material, system architecture, and installation procedures.
