What Norpec does

Norpec AS is a Norwegian power systems engineering company founded in 2019 and headquartered in Lierstranda (near Drammen) with a branch office in Bergen. The company delivers services and equipment across the full value chain of electrical power systems for high-voltage installations from 12 kV to 420 kV, including power system analyses, relay planning and documentation, protection and control systems delivery, voltage quality measurement and analysis, high-voltage station projects, and recurring service and emergency response. It serves grid operators (transmission, regional, distribution), power producers (hydro, wind, solar), power-intensive industrials, railway operators, public infrastructure (hospitals, waterworks), and data centers across Norway.

The company operates as a supplier-neutral systems integrator and value-added distributor, combining equipment from multiple manufacturers — Elspec (voltage quality instruments), Sprecher Automation (protection relays, RTUs, SCADA), A. Eberle (voltage regulators), EGE (Petersen coils), and broader OEMs including ABB, Siemens, Hitachi Energy, EATON, Benning, GE, Møre Trafo, and Arteche — with two proprietary software assets: TDPlan (relay settings planning and documentation) and PQSecure (cloud-based continuous voltage quality monitoring). Technology centers on IEC 61850 digital substation communication, including GOOSE messaging and integration with Sprecher's SPRECON platform, plus OMICRON and Siemens COMTRADE tools for fault analysis. The firm holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 27001:2022 certifications.

Commercially, Norpec runs as a privately held, founder-led business with roughly 50 employees (95% engineers, predominantly NTNU-trained with ~750 years of combined experience). Revenue is generated through quote-based professional engineering services and hardware pass-through from partner OEMs, sold via direct enterprise engagement. Named customers include Statnett (Norway's transmission system operator), Fagne AS, and Enida AS. Marketing is centered on annual industry seminars (Norpec Fagdager), technical content, and direct B2B field sales; no public pricing or revenue figures are disclosed.
