Bowman was selected to provide civil and structural engineering services for the first standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) in California. Our scope of work included delivering detailed engineering at 30%, 60%, 90% and issue for construction (IFC) stages, ensuring complete compliance with the client’s scope and California’s regulatory requirements. Structural engineering services included a […]
Bowman was contracted to provide civil and structural engineering services for the first combined solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) development in Colorado. The project involved a multi-phase approach where Bowman delivered 30%, 60%, 90% and issue for construction (IFC) plan sets in accordance with the client’s scope of work and all applicable regulatory […]
Our team served as the electrical, civil, and structural engineer for the Wadesboro Solar project. We also acted as the design project manager, working closely with the developer, installer and equipment manufacturers to efficiently execute the design of this 5 MW AC (7.65 MW DC) solar PV system located in Wadesboro, NC.
Spencer Meadow Solar and Lowe Country Solar (Spencer & Lowe) are a pair of twin projects near Asheboro, NC. Our team provided the electrical and structural engineering, a comprehensive plan set and construction support.
This project was located on the coast in harsh and wet environmental conditions near the North Carolina Albermarle Sound. Our team provided the full electrical design (PV system, auxiliary power, medium voltage design) and the structural design (inverter group structures, equipment pads).
Our team worked with a local utility company, Delta Montrose Electric Association (DMEA) to design 10 kW grid connected PV systems for several local schools. In addition to providing modest energy offset, these solar electric systems serve as educational and demonstration systems at five high schools located in Delta and Montrose counties.
Our engineering team worked closely with the racking manufacturer and civil engineer to optimize the site for installation and system performance. The layout takes advantage of the slight southern facing slope of the parcel, while varied east to west spacing and backtracking reduces inter-row shading on the rolling terrain.
Temperance Solar and Bingham Solar are two projects located in Michigan and are 29.7 MWDC and 29.3 MWDC in size, respectively. Our team, in partnership with J-Ranck Electric, provided civil, structural and electrical engineering, and assisted with commissioning. The substations for each project were prepared in-house under the supervision of our medium/high voltage engineer.
Bowman provided engineering services to provide over 52,000 sq. ft. of roof top solar panels and 17,000 sq. ft. of ground-mounted solar panels to a new shopping center.
Bowman obtained land use approvals for this LEED Gold Certified headquarters. The project sits on 12.83 acres and included the installation of over 21,000 sq. ft. of rooftop solar panels and 91,000 sq. ft. of parking lot canopy solar panels. Bowman performed initial due diligence research of municipal zoning, site plans, and coordination through the approval process.
