Engineering

Our engineering team provides tailored solutions across key disciplines:

 

Electrical: 

Designing robust and efficient power systems for reliable energy distribution and performance. In addition to the core PV, BESS and wind systems and interconnection design, we provide complete transmission and substation engineering through our select group of partners.

Civil:

Proven experience in conditional use permits, SWPPPs, grading and drainage requirements for jurisdictions across the United States. We also leverage a creative approach to discover opportunities for cost savings and efficiency gains.

Structural:

Thorough roof structure analysis to certify sufficient capacity for new PV, BESS and wind systems, develop prototype tracking systems and canopies, equipment foundations and skids.

Remote Performance Evaluations & Production Modeling

Bowman’s remote performance evaluation and production modeling services empower clients to analyze and optimize energy systems. Using historic weather files, real-time interval data and advanced modeling tools, we help you enhance the overall performance of PV assets.

  • Capacity Testing per ASTM E2848-13
  • PVSyst Production Models & Reviews
  • Helioscope Models
  • Custom Performance Modeling
  • PVCase Layouts on Rolling Terrain
  • Rows & Boundary Obstruction Shading Analysis

Energy Storage Integration

Bowman’s expertise in storage integration helps clients incorporate advanced storage solutions into their systems, enabling them to store excess energy, manage peak demand and improve grid stability. As utilities recognize the benefits of adding storage and costs continue to decrease, the storage wave is just beginning—and we are your ideal partner for navigating this market.

Feasibility Studies

Will your project make technical and financial sense? Our feasibility studies provide the information needed to assess the viability of your solar project. We analyze technical, environmental and financial variables, offering a clear path forward from concept to execution. With Bowman’s support, you can confidently make informed decisions that drive project success.

Repowering & Decommissioning

Bowman offers specialized services in repowering existing energy facilities to extend their lifespan, improve efficiency and meet new regulatory standards. When it’s time to retire an asset, our decommissioning services ensure safe, compliant and cost-effective closure, minimizing environmental impact and maximizing value recovery.

Utility Resource Planning

Energy developers require precise asset management for PV system reliability, to grid-scale energy storage and stabilize supply. Developers also need strategic guidance on siting energy systems to optimize their projects. Our long-term utility resource planning optimizes solar resource allocation, ensures regulatory compliance and supports sustainable growth, cutting planning costs and time along the way.
