Throughout North America, the need for new utility projects is projected to grow to improve electricity delivery, increase capacities, improve reliability, and meet new standards associated with incorporating renewable energy generation into the smart grid. In order to effectively utilize allocated and dedicated funding, it is critical for utilities, developers, subcontractors, project managers, and suppliers to fully understand efficient utility project cost estimation, as this new infrastructure has substantial costs and risks associated with each project. In fact, new overhead transmission lines can cost $1 million or more per mile. The process of building transmission level projects often takes many years—even in the most streamlined process. In this course, attendees will recognize the critical components to consider in a transmission project estimate. Key components of the course include all factors that impact the final cost of building this infrastructure, including permitting and siting, materials and engineering, construction, and project management. Learning Outcomes:
AgendaTHURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2022 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Central Time Session I: Costs for Major Utility Projects: Substations, Overhead Transmission, and Underground TransmissionGroup discussion of major components, including materials and construction Project Begins at the Substation
Conduit & Grounding Plan
Transmission Lines
Underground Transmission Lines
Session II: Permitting, Siting, and Right of Way Considerations and Costs
Session III: Utility Cost Estimation Process
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2022 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Central Time Session IV: Methods of Contracting
Session V: Project Cost Estimate Case StudyClass exercise to estimate major categories of project costs compared to actual costs on two real life projects. WorkshopCost Estimating 201FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2022 : CENTRAL TIME This workshop is geared towards those who would like a further understanding of the cost estimating process and experience a more in-depth teaching session after they attended the Cost Estimating Methodologies course. Attendees will learn more of the guidelines for different types of estimating projects, as well as how to use these guides. Attendees will also be working with real-life examples so they can dig deeper into the process and gain a full understanding of cost estimating for substation and transmission projects. Learning Outcomes
Who Should Attend Transmission and substation project managers, estimators, engineers, and contract managers who would like to get an advanced understanding of cost estimating. Agenda 12:45 – 1:00 p.m. 1:00 – 5:00 p.m.
