Engineering Services
Arbutus’s Engineering Services translate clean energy visions into bankable, buildable projects. Our engineering team brings multi-GW experience across solar PV, wind, energy storage, and hybrid systems, delivering optimized designs and robust project management for the entire project lifecycle. We approach each project with an eye toward future-ready design, grid integration, and climate resilience, ensuring that the infrastructure we engineer today will perform reliably for decades to come. Whether acting as the owner’s engineer, detailed design consultant, or specialized study partner, we focus on safety, quality, and innovation at every step
Owner’s Engineering & Project Management
We serve as the Owner’s Engineer/PMC (Project Management Consultant) to represent the client’s interests and ensure projects are planned, contracted, and executed efficiently.
From initial planning and bankable DPRs (Detailed Project Reports) through procurement, construction and commissioning, our team provides end-to-end oversight. We review and approve designs, monitor construction quality, manage contractors, and verify performance at commissioning. Our unbiased guidance and rigorous management help projects stay on schedule and within budget while meeting all technical and safety standards.
Detailed Design & Engineering Support
Arbutus delivers comprehensive detailed engineering for solar, wind, and energy storage projects.
Our services cover plant layout optimization, electrical system design, civil and structural engineering, and grid interconnection studies. We leverage our expertise to develop effective, optimized engineering designs that maximize energy yield and reliability. All designs adhere to relevant IEC/IEEE standards and local codes. With a quick-turnaround approach and iterative client collaboration, we ensure the engineering is done right the first time, saving time and cost during execution.
Bid Engineering & Technical Support
We support developers, EPCs and equipment suppliers in the pre-construction phase with bid engineering and technical documentation.
This includes preparing technical specifications, bills of materials, yield estimations, and cost-optimal system configurations to strengthen your bids. Our team’s input helps balance innovation and cost-effectiveness, giving you a competitive edge. We also assist with technical proposals, value engineering, and tender evaluations – enabling data-backed decision-making in procurement and contracting.
Power System Studies
Our engineers conduct a range of power system studies to facilitate the reliable integration of renewable energy into the grid.
These studies include load flow analysis, short-circuit/fault current studies, power quality and harmonic analysis, and protection coordination studies for substations and plant facilities. We ensure that your solar or wind farm can be safely and smoothly connected to the transmission or distribution network, and that it will maintain stable operation even in the face of grid disturbances. These studies not only help meet regulatory requirements but also enhance the overall resilience and performance of the power system
From technical advisory and detailed design engineering to on-site testing, commissioning and quality assurance, we provide end-to-end support throughout the project lifecycle. Arbutus is your one-stop partner for advisory and engineering in clean energy and sustainability, delivering bankable outcomes and climate-resilient infrastructure that powers a sustainable future.
Why Arbutus?
Across all our engineering services, Arbutus emphasizes innovation, safety, and sustainability. We incorporate advanced technologies (such as plant digital twins, energy storage integration, and smart controls) to future-proof your projects. Our designs also factor in climate resilience – accounting for extreme weather, seismic conditions, and other local environmental considerations. The result is engineering excellence that delivers projects which are not only cost-effective and high-performing, but also built for a sustainable future. From concept to commissioning, we engineer solutions that turn your clean energy ambitions into reality – reliably and efficiently.
