PlanningUTILITY MASTER PLAN Stanley Consultants has provided services on over 250 higher education and industrial campuses across the U.S. and has extensive experience with utility master planning. Uncertainty in future load profiles, demands for sustainable energy and the speed that technologies evolve drive the need for up-to-date Utility Master Plans. A comprehensive Utility Master Plan allows control and conservation of utilities, flexibility in generation resource allocations and long term viability to the bottom line.

Heating, cooling, electric power, water, sewer and telecommunications should be organized into a well-managed system. We work with our clients to develop a flexible tool that can be used for economic evaluation and reliable utility plant and distribution addition and extension solutions to support current and future needs.

TECHNICAL-ECONOMIC STUDIES As part of a Utility Master Plan or our clients’ strategy to market, we provide studies to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of various solutions and technologies to provide for the best path forward. Feasibility studies include a review of applicable technologies against current market pricing, tariffs and conditions with input from the client. The result of our analysis provides for a comparison of different options with capital and operational costs estimates. Once a solution

is decided and the client chooses to move forward, Stanley Consultants moves to the Development Phase of the effort and is able to refine the path forward further.

ENERGY AND RATE ANALYSIS As operations may change over the years for our clients, energy usage may shrink or grow or change to a completely different schedule than in the past. Stanley Consultants analyzes utility rate structures for our clients to ensure they are in the most efficient electric and natural gas schedule for their current and future use. This includes introduction to potential third party utility providers, be it financial or physical in supply. Our Advisory Services team also assists load serving entities in their rate structures for their customers and can assist developers of industrials or energy projects in selecting regions and sites with attractively priced markets.

TECHNOLOGY SELECTIONS Stanley Consultants provides technology selections as part of a Utility Master Plan, as well as for Greenfield and Brownfield development strategies. Our breadth and depth on technologies includes both cleantech and conventional, mature technologies. We have been providing onsite, behind the meter and grid-connected utility systems for over 70 years. Stanley Consultants has deep experience in providing microgrids to our clients for energy security, resiliency and optimal energy pricing.

DevelopmentINITIAL SITE ANALYSIS Our site selection process incorporates our experience and technology through geographical information systems (“GIS”), shared with clients through a web-based application. GIS, with selection criteria generated through a workshop with the client, allows us to efficiently present initial sites to be considered through a ranking mechanism. Stanley Consultants maintains a listing of criteria for different types of energy technologies that can be used as a base for client review. Once a site or sites are selected, we are able to assist the client in driving the development forward expediently through the below site specific development services.

LAND ACQUISITION Different than most engineering solutions providers, Stanley Consultants has a land management team able to identify and acquire land and ROW on our client’s behalf to streamline the process. Obtaining site control is the first step to assessing the specific development site further through our Critical Issues and Assessment service. Our Land Team is well experienced in obtaining surface and subsurface rights and waivers.

CRITICAL ISSUES AND ASSESSMENTS Stanley Consultants addresses all land related environmental and infrastructure concerns associated with the selected site. This is essentially a fatal flaw analysis that allows the client to minimize spend, while addressing go and no go issues. As part of this service, we address the following items, at a minimum:

» Boundary and Topographical Survey » Cultural Review » Biological Review and Wetland Delineation » Confirmation of Infrastructure (electric lines, gas pipelines

and water availability) » Preliminary Geotechnical Report

OWNER’S ENGINEER SERVICES From conception of the development, up to the transaction and through construction, Stanley Consultants offers its Owner’s Engineer (“OE”) services to our clients. The OE role supports the development process and includes preliminary engineering services to program management for a multi-site development approach, allowing our client’s with a single point of contact for their development needs.
