DESIGN DAY & LONG-RANGE DEMAND STUDIES

Our Design Day Studies and Long-Range Studies are most often used to assist utilities in appraising their infrastructure based on forecasted periods of peak demand. Our studies and delivered reports have been used in regulatory tribunals, by both supply and control groups. We also construct custom studies to help predict business success.
