Restore Power Faster. Improve Future Resilience.
From damage assessment to restoration planning and implementation, we help you succeed in the most difficult circumstances.
As extreme weather circumstances become more common, your power systems are more vulnerable than ever. A widespread power outage can quickly overwhelm your resources, even if you think you’re prepared for the worst. Damaged transformers and substations may spill hazardous chemicals such as PCBs and storms may bring wires down across broad service territories which can exceed your ability and capacity to address in-house.
TRC’s engineers and designers deliver expertise in planning and analysis, inspection, scheduling and resource coordination to restore power faster. Our damage assessors, patrol teams, crew guides and field construction coordinators help to bring your operations back online quickly and efficiently. When service is restored, we can provide ongoing engineering support to identify failures and implement corrective actions that enhance site reliability and resiliency, now and for the future.

PCE and SVCE Trailblazing Reach Code Initiative Drives Decarbonization
January 5, 2021
California has passed landmark directives over the last several years to drive carbon neutrality by 2045 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles and buildings. These directives have motivated local cities and counties to meet their climate action goals and prompted two community choice aggregators (CCAs)—Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) and Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE)—to provide resources that help communities deliver on these goals.
NERC Proposes Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement Plan for 2019
September 26, 2018
This month, NERC released the first draft of its 2019 Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement Plan (CMEP) which identifies power delivery system risks and outlines compliance audit requirements for next year. The risk elements outlined in the plan include significant differences from previous years, as shown in the table below. Each NERC region must consider these risks as they develop their monitoring and audit scopes for utilities. Utilities should be prepared to be audited and implement any necessary compliance initiatives in these areas.
