Power engineering structures
Energy structures are specialised steel objects designed for continuous load, high temperatures, and increased safety requirements. They are used in, among others, combined heat and power plants, power stations, renewable energy installations, and energy infrastructure facilities. At W ON-Time Solutions, energy constructions are developed based on precise engineering calculations and the real-world operating conditions of the installations, ensuring the stability, durability, and reliability of the facility for years to come.
Do you have questions or concerns?
Industrial power structures are built and operate in various locations and conditions. These can include: * **Harsh weather environments:** This can involve extreme temperatures (both hot and cold), high winds, heavy rainfall, snow, ice, and even corrosive elements like salt spray in coastal areas. * **Remote and inaccessible locations:** Many power plants and transmission lines are situated far from population centres, requiring infrastructure to be built in challenging terrain such as mountains, deserts, or offshore. * **Geologically active areas:** Structures may need to withstand seismic activity, requiring special design considerations for earthquakes. * **Areas with high pollution:** Factories and power stations can be located in zones with significant air or water pollution, which can impact the materials used and require protective measures. * **Underwater or underground:** Components like subsea power cables or underground substations are built and function beneath the surface. * **Urban and industrial zones:** While energy structures are often out of sight, key components like substations and some power plants are integrated into or near populated and industrial areas. The conditions under which these structures operate are demanding, requiring robust materials, sophisticated engineering, and regular maintenance to ensure safety, reliability, and longevity.
Energy constructions operate in technically demanding environments, where it is crucial to resistance to dynamic loads, temperature, and intensive useThese objects must maintain full operational capability under continuous operation and variable operating conditions.
Energy structures are used in, among other things:
- in combined heat and power plants and conventional power plants,
- in combined heat and power installations,
- renewable energy facilities,
- transmission and technical infrastructure.
An investor must pay attention to the following when designing energy structures:
Energy Construction Project requires strict adherence to technology, installation, and environmental conditions. Any mismatch can result in downtime or costly upgrades.
At the design stage, we take into account, among other things:
- dynamic loads from power devices
- The influence of temperature and vibrations on structures.
- environmental aggressiveness classes and anticorrosive protection,
- normative and industry requirements
- logistics of assembly on an operational site.
This approach limits technical risk and ensures the safe operation of the installation.
Structural solutions used in the energy industry
Energy constructions are carried out as prefabricated steel elements, produced under controlled conditions and assembled with the highest quality standards. Prefabrication shortens construction time on site and increases predictability of execution.
Depending on the type of object, the constructions may include:
- Load-bearing structures for power equipment,
- technological and service platforms,
- Pipeline and plant support structures
- service mezzanines and auxiliary structures

Frequently asked questions about energy infrastructure
Structures used in energy production are considered energy constructions.
Energy structures include, among others, CHP plants, power plants, cogeneration installations, renewable energy facilities, and technical infrastructure supporting energy production and transmission.
Do energy constructions have to meet special standards?
Yes. Energy structures are subject to strict industry and European standards, which regulate, among other things, loads, safety of use, and resistance to environmental conditions. Design always takes place in accordance with current standard requirements.
Do you carry out energy constructions on active facilities?
Yes. We have experience in carrying out construction work on energy facilities that remain in operation. Works are carried out with adherence to safety principles and in close coordination with other trades.
Why entrust the implementation of energy structures to ON-Time Solutions?
Investors choose ON-TIME Solutions due to their experience in demanding energy projects, precise design, and comprehensive execution – from documentation and prefabrication to the assembly of structures.
