Pine Gate Renewables“Speakers did a great job. It is hard when folks are remote, but the content was helpful, they kept to schedule, and I learned a lot.”
EDF Renewables“They did a good job interjecting real world examples to illustrate the material. A good high-level introduction to cost estimating.”
AmerenUtility transmission and substation projects require substantial capital investment and are subject to complex regulatory, permitting, and construction constraints. Insufficient understanding of key cost drivers and delivery risks can lead to budget overruns and schedule delays.
This course offers a comprehensive exploration of the cost considerations and processes involved in major utility projects, particularly focusing on substations, overhead transmission, and underground transmission. Through interactive discussions and case studies, participants will examine the key components of utility project development, including planning, site development, and construction for transmission lines. The course introduces the complexities of building transmission infrastructure, covering essential elements such as foundations, conduits, and grounding plans for both overhead and underground systems, while also highlighting the challenges encountered in urban and rural settings.
This course also covers the financial and regulatory aspects of utility projects. Participants will engage with the utility cost estimation process, learning best practices for developing budgets, managing risks, and estimating costs throughout the project lifecycle. A session on permitting, siting, and right-of-way considerations will address environmental impacts, construction challenges, and strategies to streamline project timelines. Finally, a hands-on case study exercise will provide real-world experience in estimating and comparing project costs, rounding out this practical, in-depth course.
