Energy & Environment
Clean, secure energy resources and environmental protection are fundamental challenges facing the United States, and ARA is tackling these complex, technical problems through new approaches to efficiency, sustainability, and innovation.
Our energy services extend from research and development of alternative power sources to design and construction of advanced energy systems. We developed clean energy for aviation with the world's first 100% drop-in renewable biofuel, and we provide cost-saving production and conservation measures for the military, for industry, and for our homes that will help strengthen America's energy security.
As a full-service environmental consulting firm, we help our customers meet today's complex compliance, safety and cultural resource management requirements. ARA is a world leader in advanced in-situ soil testing and the largest domestic manufacturer of cone penetrometer equipment for in-depth soil exploration. Our monitoring technologies help keep industrial facilities running and make environments safer for workers. Through our catastrophe risk management services, we help reduce property damage due to extreme environmental events and, more importantly, help save lives.
We collaborate across disciplines to supply our clients with pioneering research and economically viable, technically sound solutions that will strengthen America’s energy security, protect our natural resources, and help secure our future.
