Over the company’s 26-year history, PDE have been engaged in a wealth of projects within Ireland, the UK and further afield. Projects have ranged from simple P&IDs for smaller scale manufacturers in the food industry, through to the design, build and construction of an 84,000 tonne fuel storage depot.

Whilst we have a strong specialism in the Oil Storage and Distribution industry, our client base also includes companies within the Energy Utility, General Manufacturing, Chemical, Process and Food & Drink industries.

We believe that what makes PDE different from other engineering consultancies is our ability to deliver a tailored, value-engineered and personal service to each and every one of our clients. The scale of our operations allows us to assign dedicated Project Managers for the duration of any given project, ensuring continuity of service and the highest levels of client service.

PDE appointed as subcontractor on advanced battery-based Energy Storage Facility.

Project Design Engineers Ltd has been appointed subcontractor for works on the new 10MW lithium-ion Battery Storage Facility at Kilroot Power Station, owned by energy giant AES.  The new storage facility is the company’s first in the UK and could mean cheaper electricity if its bid to harness the full power of Northern Ireland’s wind energy resource is successful.

Adrian Watson, Managing Director of PDE, states “We are delighted to be involved with such a significant development at AES Kilroot.  Energy Storage represents a major component of future Energy systems and is an important tool in achieving a low-carbon future, this is certainly something that PDE are excited to be part of.

Project Design Engineers are providing expertise and various professional services in the guise of technical drawings, overall project management and HSE guidance with the project.”

The ‘Kilroot Advancion’ Energy Storage Array will provide 10MW of interconnected energy storage, equivalent to 20MW of flexible resource.  The Array is expected to enter operation late 2015.
