In response to growing client demand for tailored solutions balancing conventional and renewable generation sources, as well as more distributed, resilient power sources and grid infrastructure, Black & Veatch have announced the reorganization of its global power business.

The new organization places focus on Black & Veatch Power's Renewables business and launches a Distributed Energy operating group, strictly focused on distributed energy resources (DERs) and power distribution, according to the press release.

The structure also enhances global focus on Black & Veatch's traditional conventional and power transmission businesses.

"Working with clients of differing scale and development it's become clear that generation, transmission and distribution can no longer operate in isolation," said Mario Azar, President of Black & Veatch's global power business. "Demand for renewable energy continues to grow, with its generation now impacting the operations of the traditional transmission and distribution sectors. Investments in distributed energy require a more flexible grid to ensure reliability and offer clients a greater choice of power generation solutions."
