Power Towns
Build Smarter, Stronger Energy Systems—With the Team You Already Have
Ovanova’s “Power Town” initiative helps grid operators move from resilience planning to real-world deployment.
We work directly with your infrastructure and finance teams to assess your systems, uncover opportunities, and design energy strategies that deliver long-term value—without long timelines or outside dependence.
Start a Power Town assessment and explore what's possible with your existing assets.
High-Value Strategies, Delivered Fast
In just a few focused sessions, we'll help your team identify where meaningful improvements can be made—quickly and effectively.
Peak Shaving
We analyze your load profile to identify high-demand periods and help you reduce strain on your infrastructure. The result is lower costs, greater efficiency, and less need for reactive investments
Load Shifting
By adjusting when energy is used—not just how much—we help you make smarter use of existing capacity. This approach can improve stability, reduce risk, and open the door to new value streams.
Grid Infrastructure Deferral
Instead of defaulting to capital expansion, we explore how targeted resilience investments can reduce or delay the need for large infrastructure upgrades—saving time and resources.
EV and V2G Integration
We help you assess how electric vehicles and bidirectional charging can serve not just your customers, but your grid. Smart V2G strategies can turn load into value and build flexibility into your network.
Reliability Metric Analysis
Where applicable, we review metrics like CAIDI, SAIDI, and SAIFI to understand how your system performs today and how proposed changes will be measured. We help translate these insights into clear, board-facing recommendations that support strategic investment.
This is practical, community-centered work—grounded in your utility’s real infrastructure and focused on delivering measurable results.
Do It With You, Not For You
Our approach is based on knowledge transfer. After the initial analysis, we equip your internal team to pursue grants and direct-pay incentives, engage community leadership, and integrate new technologies into your existing systems.
We also help you prepare your organization to manage and maintain resilience assets in-house—lowering long-term costs and creating new roles for local workers.

What It Takes to Begin
Getting started is simple. We ask for a few hours with your engineers who know the system and your finance and legal team who can vet the analysis. From there, we collaborate on a clear, actionable path forward.

Why Now
You already own your grid. You already manage your operations. You likely already have dollars set aside for infrastructure and resilience. Power Towns exists to help you turn that capacity into measurable, lasting impact—with fewer delays and more local control.
