When I speak with civil engineers in the land development sector, a common question is 'How do I pivot into working on renewable projects?' Consulting engineering firms are rapidly increasing the amount of solar, EV & BESS projects that they're providing site design services for, often led there by their clients. These projects are not only exciting, but offer opportunities to work on challenging, diverse and unique sites. However, with a lot of firms staying in the more 'traditional' residential/commercial/industrial/institutional sectors, some engineers that I've spoken with are entertaining their options in order to be able to work on these projects. If you're a civil engineer in the civil/site development field and are interested in hearing what could be out there to work on these type's of projects, get in touch! #cleanenergy #civilengineering #sitedevelopment

Tech Tip Tuesday: Home Energy Efficiency - A Civil Engineering Perspective This week on Tech Tip Tuesday, we explore how civil engineering principles can be applied to improve energy efficiency in our homes. As winter approaches, these tips are particularly timely for ensuring a cozy, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly living space. Civil engineering isn't just about large-scale projects; it also offers valuable insights into home efficiency. Simple modifications like proper insulation, window upgrades, and efficient heating systems can significantly reduce energy consumption and lower utility bills. Another key aspect is the utilization of renewable energy sources, such as installing solar panels. This not only cuts down on electricity costs but also reduces the environmental impact of our homes.

#Civil engineers play a #crucial role in the #development and #implementation #GREEN #ENERGY 1. **Design and Construction**: Civil engineers design and construct infrastructure for renewable energy projects, such as wind farms, solar power plants, and hydroelectric facilities. This involves creating structures that can withstand environmental conditions and optimize energy efficiency. 2. **Site Assessment and Planning**: They assess potential sites for renewable energy projects, considering factors like land stability, environmental impact, and accessibility. This helps ensure that projects are both viable and sustainable. 3. **Integration with Existing Infrastructure**: Engineers work on integrating green energy systems with existing infrastructure. This might involve retrofitting buildings with energy-efficient systems or designing new infrastructure that supports renewable energy. 4. **Sustainability and Efficiency**: They implement sustainable practices in construction and design, such as using eco-friendly materials, optimizing energy use, and reducing waste. This aligns with broader green energy goals and helps minimize the environmental footprint of construction projects. 5. **Regulatory Compliance**: Civil engineers ensure that renewable energy projects comply with environmental regulations and standards. They work to meet legal requirements while achieving project goals. 6. **Innovation and Research**: They engage in research and development to improve green energy technologies and construction methods, contributing to more efficient and cost-effective solutions. In essence, civil engineers are pivotal in advancing green energy by designing and building the infrastructure that supports sustainable energy systems.

Climate / Green Technology Consultant | Finding impactful companies and empowering them to grow, creating jobs, emissions reductions, social resilience and further positive cascades!
We need to find solutions for decarbonising power generation on your construction or remote site? Not sure what fuel options you should be investing in, short or long term? Wellll, take a look at IPG Energy cus, there's your solution right there.
Interesting debate published in the New Civil Engineer discussing the challenge of switching to lower and zero carbon fuels to cut emissions. My key takeaways: · Cost is king. Whether its using diesel over more expensive HVO, or resisting the move from diesel to electric plant, most construction companies simply can’t afford the cost increase – as high as 300% in some cases - that comes with switching from diesel to a renewable solution like green hydrogen. Mark Fowler and Darren Carter raise some interesting points on this. · Some solutions might not be as sustainable as you’d think. If carbon reductions are the goal, construction companies need to make sure that their renewable fuel of choice is better than an alternative fuel when all factors – from type of feedstock to tailpipe emissions - are taken into consideration. Athina Papakosta and Andrea Davidson make this point well. The points raised in this debate resonate well with the conversations we’ve been having with the industry at IPG Energy. Cost and availability challenges in particular are a barrier to deploying renewable generators at any meaningful scale beyond the first pilot trial. But fuel-agnostic generators overcome these barriers. (In part, why our fuel-agnostic product was shortlisted as a Finalist for New Civil Engineer and Construction News’s TechFest Product Innovation of the Year!) I recommend giving the article a read: https://bit.ly/4a1P9hr Laing O'Rourke MAP Plant Skanska Costain STRABAG Joint Venture HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd #RenewableFuel #FuelAgnostic #NetZero #SustainableConstruction
