Others

• Mitsubishi Electric Power Products (MEPPI) Engineering Services: MEPPI delivers substation engineering, HVDC, and power systems services as an extension of its equipment manufacturing business. Compares to OEC on substation engineering scope and utility customer base, but is part of a global equipment manufacturer rather than an independent consulting firm.
