Power and Energy

Energy and utility accidents can have severe consequences and large financial impacts, especially when critical machinery and operations come to a halt. Our engineers and consultants understand the uniqueness of the energy industry and will ask the right questions to put these complex situations into perspective and provide you with an economical and sound solution or opinion, quickly.

Envista's global network of experts have knowledge of power generation design, installation, operations, and maintenance, and use this expertise during their investigations. Our experience includes:

  • Fossil fuels
  • Gas and steam turbines

  • Combined cycle and independent power plants (IPPs)
  • Hydroelectric
  • Solar
  • Nuclear

Envista's energy experts have in-depth knowledge and experience responding to failures involving transmission and distribution equipment, control systems, boilers, pressure vessels, switchgear, and many other energy production components. We are able to provide forensic analysis on claims related to first-party property damage, third-party liability, construction all fisk, and others. 

On-Site Examinations

Our team of experts performs on-site and remote investigations as required, gathering critical evidence and information, preventing it from being lost in recovery operations. Being a highly collaborative multidisciplinary team, Envista has the right experts to work through unique technical issues and give you the best results.

We perform on-site and remote investigations, are climbed certified, and perform root cause analysis, determine the extent of damage, evaluate various mitigation options, help minimise business interruption issues, and identify and preserve evidence for potential subrogation or third-party liability action. Envista engineers work closely with all involved parties, including claim adjusters, policyholders, service providers, and manufacturers, to deliver complete technical opinions and solutions for the project.
