The ASSET Company performs long range plans and develop construction work plans to service rural electric cooperative and municipal power departments. We have specific experience in coordinating with city and county planners, other government agencies, and developers to determine system growth in specific areas, rather than relying on a non-specific annualized general growth rate. The ASSET Company fully explores load allocation options to make the system model match measured load currents and power factors and delivery point consumption reports. In addition to studies, The ASSET Company designs substation, distribution extension, and other related projects, and acts as the Owner's Engineer when called upon.
