Power systems engineering design for renewables, substations, and transmission infrastructure
NEI Electric Power Engineering is a 40-year-old design and engineering firm operating across electrical, civil, and structural disciplines for power infrastructure. The stack—ETAP, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, SCADA, IEC 61850, DNP3—reflects a traditional engineering services firm, with recent adoption of MicroStation and Civil 3D suggesting a transition toward more integrated design workflows. Active hiring is concentrated in mid-level engineering roles, with a single principal slot open, indicating a focus on project execution capacity rather than leadership expansion.

NEI provides full-lifecycle engineering design and consulting for electric power systems, from conceptual feasibility through detailed design to construction management and commissioning. The firm serves utilities, independent power producers, and industrial clients across renewable energy (solar PV, battery energy storage, wind) and traditional grid infrastructure (substations through 500 kV, transmission and distribution lines, protective relaying). With 201–500 employees based in Lakewood, Colorado, NEI manages multi-discipline project teams and maintains expertise in regulatory compliance, system modeling (ETAP, PVsyst), and emerging energy storage technologies. Current project workload spans utility-scale solar and BESS installations, electrical substation design, and wind collection systems.
NEI designs power systems across renewables (utility-scale PV, BESS, wind), substations (up to 500 kV), transmission and distribution lines, protective relaying, and project commissioning. Multi-discipline expertise includes electrical, civil, and structural engineering.
Primary tools include ETAP (power system modeling), AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MicroStation, PVsyst (solar design), IEC 61850, DNP3, SCADA, and Primavera P6 for project scheduling.
