Wieland Lindgren can help you produce energy or control industrial processes more efficiently, regardless of your facility's scale or type. Whether you're an independent power producer, a manufacturer, or a petroleum refiner, our engineering solutions can improve your operations.
Wieland Lindgren is committed to satisfying its clients. Every one of our projects demonstrates the qualities for which we are selected:
- state-of-the-art expertise
- practical experience
- multidisciplinary, problem-solving design
- comprehensive, responsive service
- and uncompromising quality.
Much of our work is referral and repeat business because of the high value Wieland Lindgren delivers. We focus on meeting our clients' exact needs. In the short term, we solve problems on time and within budget, In the long term, our projects remain reliable and minimize maintenance and operating costs.
Engineers for
Energy and Industry
Wieland Lindgren provides completely integrated engineering solutions ---- combining all applicable disciplines ---- for both new and retrofit projects. The following six categories highlight some of the project types we design. Most of our projects are one-of-a-kind installations that combine systems from several of these areas.p

Electrical Power Generation
Wieland Lindgren has been designing steam and diesel power plants for utilities and industry for over 40 years. We handle any size project.
We design both electrical generation and cogeneration plants for industry and for independent power producers (IPPs). When cogeneration is not economic, we can still provide an IPP with a qualifying facility by designing a renewable-fuel power plant. One of our specialties wood and waste-fuel plants, with all required materials-handling and emissions-control systems.
Petrochemical Installations
Wieland Lindgren designs a variety of systems for petrochemical refining and transfer facilities. We can engineer refineries to our clients' process specifications, as well as tank farms, process-heat boilers, and fire-protection systems. For product transfer, we design mainland and offshore shopping/receiving facilities, rail and truck loading racks, and lease automatic custody transfer (LACT) installations.
Energy Conservation
Energy conservation is involved in almost everything Wieland Lindgren designs. We analyze thermal waste streams, reduce heat losses through insulation, and recover normally wasted heat ---- through cogeneration or other techniques ---- to help make our clients' operations as cost-efficient as possible.
Emission Controls
Strict environmental standards make Wieland Lindgren's emissions-control expertise a critical part of any project involving the burning of fuel. We control various types of emission: particulate, NOx, SO², and hydrocarbons. To reliably remove these pollutants, our systems integrate proven technologies, including electrostatic precipitators, bag houses, spray dryers, and liquid or dry chemical scrubbers.
Control Systems
Wieland Lindgren designs power and process control systems for new installations, as well as upgrading existing controls. We integrate state-of-the-art digital, electronic, electric, and pneumatic components for highest reliability and ease of use. A typical Wieland Lindgren control system combines microprocessors, PLC's, PID loop controllers, and electric or pneumatic drives into an integrated system.
Wieland Lindgren has been optimizing energy efficiency for decades by integrating power and heat production, long before the term cogeneration was coined. We design cogeneration plants for industry and as qualifying facilities under the Public Utilities Regulatory Policy Act (PURPA) for IPPs.
Most often, cogeneration plants are gas-turbine systems with heat-recovery steam generators (HRSGs). We also design cogeneration systems for diesel, solid fuels, or renewable fuels.
Commissioning is a sequence of documentation reviews, equipment inspections and system tests essential to the acquisition and installation of reliable equipment. The commissioning process will be followed for all building and utility systems including electrical, security, food service, mechanical, controls and elevators. The first step toward the successful commissioning of a system is, in coordination with the end user, to define the desired operating criteria (i.e., load, temperature, process, etc...). Most contract specifications contain testing that is based on verifying only that components function in accordance with the manufacturer. Since the intent of commissioning is to verify that the system meets the operating criteria of the end user, the commissioning agency will develop an official commissioning document containing all system function tests based on that criteria. The commissioning document will include a Commissioning Requirement Register, outlining all of the component tests, system function tests, and required submittals necessary for occupancy or use. The commissioning agency will have the authority for ensuring all commissioning requirements have been met and all required documentation has been submitted, approved, and in the customer's possession prior to the authorization to occupy or use the system.
Electrical Engineering Department Manager
Position for a senior electrical engineer who will manage the electrical engineering department as well as be responsible for electrical design and management of small to large projects. Perform calculations and provide power, lighting, and system plan layout. Create one-line diagrams, edit specifications, prepare electrical plan schedules, and cost estimating. Projects require field work, designing electrical power and communication systems for industrial applications within chiller, boiler, and power plants, including above and below grade infrastructure systems. Commercial design applications include universities and hospitals.
Qualifications: Candidates should have a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering and be registered as a Professional Engineer. The Candidate should have 8 - 10 years experience with a broad background in medium and low voltage power distribution systems, lighting, variable speed drive applications, fire alarm, communication systems and the National Electrical Code. Must have good communication skills to coordinate project requirements with clients.
Mechanical Engineer
HVAC and or Industrial for design of building systems or Industrial energy and utility systems such as steam and electricity. All levels with BSME and 5 years experience minimum. PE desirable. Salary and position determined by experience and accomplishments.
