Eastbank grid support hub
Bringing the grid connection, the equipment and the site into one design brief.

01 / The brief
Define an illustrative grid support facility with a clear route from concept engineering to equipment procurement. The project includes a substation interface, control building and associated balance-of-plant infrastructure.
02 / The key interface
Different equipment suppliers work to different information schedules. The design must identify which dimensions, loads and interface requirements are needed early, and which can be developed later.
03 / Our response
The concept uses an interface register to connect supplier information with civil, electrical and control-system design. A staged design review makes open assumptions visible before procurement packages are released.
Project scope
- Concept and layout development
- Grid-interface coordination
- Civil and electrical design basis
- Equipment package definition
- Procurement information schedules
04 / What the dossier makes clear
- Design deliverables are aligned with the information needed for the next project decision.
- Equipment interfaces are recorded with an owner and a required decision date.
- The procurement plan distinguishes early technical inputs from final supplier data.
