PowerN is focused on developing innovative products and providing experience driven consulting services to reduce uncertainty, enhance safety and reduce the cost of building and operating existing infrastructure facilities throughout their lifecycle. We blend modern digital and data-driven approaches with decades of experience based learning to offer solutions in the areas of conceptualization, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of infrastructure components, systems, and facilities.

Large industrial projects suffer from significant construction cost escalations and schedule delays. This is an even bigger challenge for critical facilities such as nuclear power plants. The operational costs of such facilities have also been quite high due to excessively stringent and often unrealistic safety requirements. Decades of research and development conducted by the cofounders of PowerN has shown that excessively stringent requirements have existed due to a lack of knowledge, large degree of uncertainty in decision making, and an inability to visualize actual performance and condition of the facility in real time. Digital technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) offer transformational opportunities to address these challenges when combined effectively with fundamental knowledge, new data types, and operational experience assimilated over multiple decades. PowerN’s vision is to create cutting-edge digital engineering solutions through an integration of these multi modal aspects. We believe that such solutions will help us achieve on-cost and on-schedule delivery of large construction projects and also reduce excessively high operation and maintenance costs.

PowerN has provided valuable consulting and experimental testing services across a wider ranging domain of applications including nuclear power plant safety, construction of energy facilities, seismic safety of electrical systems, and ageing of concrete infrastructure. We have used modern digital tools including deep learning and augmented reality in developing new solutions. Among a few different products offered by PowerN, we have made significant advances in the development, commercialization, and customer engagement for its flagship product CPMS (Construction Performance Modeling and Simulation). PowerN’s strategic collaborations with two leading construction companies in the United States have facilitated the development of CPMS.
