Black & Veatch's newly-appointed Executive Vice President discusses Asian power infrastructure

Black & Veatch, an employee-owned company specialising in building critical human infrastructure in energy, water, telecommunications and government services, has appointed Narsingh Chaudhary as Executive Vice President for its Asia Power Business.

Chaudhary joins Black & Veatch with more than 25 years of experience leading various energy businesses in the Asia region and globally. In his former role with Siemens, he developed and implemented energy projects in various countries including Southeast Asia. Chaudhary is based in Bangkok.

As Executive Vice President, Chaudhary aims to bring focus to integrated conventional, renewable, distributed generation and the power grid.

"Regional governments are making good progress in supplying affordable and reliable energy for their population as they also implement emerging technologies to offer more sustainable solutions. With global and regional experience in generation, transmission and distribution technologies, Black & Veatch is helping regional leadership identify integrated power infrastructure possibilities as they re-balance their energy portfolios to meet universal electrification and carbon emission reduction goals,” commented Narsingh Chaudhary, Black & Veatch's newly-appointed Executive Vice President, Asia Power Business.

Chaudhary leads Black & Veatch Power teams in Asia, including India, where the company service offerings include conventional, renewable, and distributed power generation, transmission and distribution, microgrids, and behind the meter services.

Chaudhary added that while this transition occurs governments have not lost sight of the need to bring power to rural and remote areas.

An integrated power infrastructure takes advantage of different generation, transmission and distribution technologies to help utilities overcome the pitfalls of aging infrastructure assets while meeting rising customer demand for energy that is renewable and reliable. The right energy portfolio mix offers improved operation efficiencies.
