OVERVIEW

Meet Frank Johnson, PE - Power & Utility Market Director

With over 25 years of experience, Frank has performed as managing principal, project manager, and lead project/electrical engineer on projects across the power, industrial, and commercial/government sectors on projects ranging from $10K to $5 million in engineering fees.  His technical experience includes the study, design and project management of high, medium and low voltage transmission and distribution systems, substations, hazardous area equipment, raceways and cable systems, grounding and communication systems in addition to load flow analysis, short circuit analysis, power system computer modeling, arc flash studies, economic evaluations and planning studies.

Frank is a registered Professional Engineer and holds a B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering. 


A Trusted Resource for Utilities and Industrial Complexes for Over Seven Decades

In the summer of 2003, a massive power outage blanketed a huge chunk of the United States and parts of Canada, bringing cities and communities to a screeching halt. The nation’s— and world’s—power infrastructure became a focus of sudden and increased scrutiny, and facilities began to consider new and better ways to improve their operations to prevent and manage similar future catastrophes.

R.E. Warner knows the importance of a reliable means to meet the demand for power. A dependable power source is the backbone of society. With an unparalleled commitment to serving this market, we’ve partnered with several major names in the nation’s energy sector to implement measures to improve system reliability through upgrades, repairs and expansion.

Our multi-disciplined team of engineers and architects serves as a trusted resource for utility companies and major industrial complexes in their budget planning efforts, energy delivery modeling, compliance reporting, plus as they work to maintain, improve, and build new substations and transmission and distribution systems. Because the success and security of our clients’ operations goes beyond power stability, we’ve designed and developed reliable power supplies and emergency safeguards across several sectors, including municipal and industrial facilities.

In addition to this expected consistency, power plants are now also under immense pressure to reduce their carbon footprint in the short term. In the long term, political administrations in Washington and the rest of the world are calling on power facilities to be fully carbon-free by the year 2050. We’re ready to help plants meet the demand for clean energy by upgrading out-of-date facilities without sacrificing shutdowns during transition.
