Advanced Technologies and Products

We represent various manufacturers that provide "industry advancing" products and services. These include:

The advanced ACCC composite core conductors with dramatic improvements in current carrying capacity and sag profile (www.ctcglobal.com)

Technology that allows high speed EV charging while not negatively impacting the grid, and a second system that prevents critical industrial loads from being interrupted by transmission grid instability (www.proventus.global)

Want to know about the internal health of a transformer? Very detailed, such as the level of paper insulation damage? Contact me, or get in touch with Peter at Lowfoot.

The remarkable Bull Wrap from Grid Wrap. This is a gamechanger for all utilities that need to deal with aging wood and concrete poles and don't have the money or crews to replace them.

Significant time is spent investigating technologies that are deployed across North America, Europe, the Middle and Far East to ensure you know what's working well for other asset owners, not merely what someone is trying to sell you.

Keith's Quote: "If it doesn't offer substantial benefit to the industry, we don't represent it. Life is too short".

Partners and Collaborations

It's virtually impossible to make a significant impact on the industry by yourself. No one knows everything. Ultimately you need access to experienced people and companies to achieve the high standards you set for yourself. It's our job to help you find the support you need.

Looking for a key partner to help you bid on a project, add new elements to your service offering or strategically improve your business? Contact us. You'll be surprised at who we know.

Keith's Quote: "Every successful person has always had a team. Coaches, business partners, leaders, technical specialists, and community supporters all need to find a way onto your team. No one flies alone".

Technical Guidance

As the world continues on the path of mass electrification, many questions are raised around boardroom tables, in project team discussions and by interested parties everywhere. What can we do about aging infrastructure? Is our plan technically possible to implement? What are the unforeseen consequences of our decisions? Will we receive support from industry?

It's helpful to have the voice of experience in your conversations as you create your plans.

Keith's Quote: "Great ideas matter, but reality and physics always win".

Mentoring

Running a successful business requires good people making good decisions everyday. It can be difficult to know what works without the understanding tat comes with time. We provide access to experienced leaders who can help your team gain insight without having to spend years making the same mistakes.

Keith's Quote: "I definitely wish I'd had someone to guide me in my early years of management. Life would have been a lot easier".
