Power & Renewables
Powering remote and industrial operations means planning for redundancy, fuel logistics, and long-term sustainability. KEW provides turnkey design and integration of hybrid energy systems—combining solar, wind, diesel, and battery storage—engineered for performance in off-grid and mission-critical environments. We specialize in SCADA-enabled microgrids with automated source switching, intelligent load management, and real-time data monitoring that supports more efficient fuel use, reduced O&M costs, […]
Physical Security
Access control and camera systems are the first line of defense for critical infrastructure—and KEW builds them to thrive in Alaska’s and West Texas’s most remote and hazardous locations. From fuel depots to water facilities and unstaffed pump stations, we design and deploy industrial-grade IP video and access management systems that protect your operations from intrusion, tampering, and […]
Oil & Gas
Oil & Gas operations in Alaska and West Texas face some of the most remote and extreme conditions in the world. From icy tundra to scorching desert, Koniag Energy & Water delivers control and power systems that are built to last—wherever the field takes you. KEW supports upstream and midstream clients with fully integrated SCADA, PLC, […]
Industrial Cybersecurity
Industrial control systems are increasingly connected—and vulnerable. KEW offers ISA/IEC 62443-aligned cybersecurity solutions that protect OT environments from unauthorized access, malware, and remote exploits. Our team provides OT asset inventory, firewall configuration, network segmentation, VPN-secured remote access, SCADA hardening, and continuous threat monitoring. We also deliver operator training and develop site-specific incident response plans. Whether you’re upgrading legacy SCADA or […]
Function Checkout & Commissioning
Commissioning isn’t complete until every I/O point is tested, control loops validated, and system performance verified under load. KEW’s Function Checkout and Commissioning services provide complete pre-startup validation for automation and electrical systems. Our teams conduct signal simulation, fail-safe testing, interlock verification, and HMI/SCADA testing to ensure all logic sequences perform as designed. We provide FAT/SAT support, redline […]
Fabrication
KEW fabricates custom UL-listed stainless steel control panels, junction boxes, and instrument cabinets locally in Alaska—eliminating long lead times and ensuring solutions are built to spec for harsh environments. Our fabrication shop produces NEMA 4/4X, heated, and Class I, Div I-ready enclosures that are tested, certified, and ready for deployment. Panels can be built for automation, […]
Engineering
KEW’s engineering team delivers electrical, mechanical, and controls engineering services optimized for industrial systems operating in Arctic cold and desert heat. Whether it’s -60°F on Alaska’s North Slope or 115°F in West Texas, we design for real-world extremes. From single-line diagrams to I/O point-to-point schematics and P&IDs, our systems are engineered to be code-compliant, safe, and resilient in the most unforgiving environments. We specialize in designing control panels, […]
Electrical
KEW provides complete electrical services for industrial and remote operations—engineered to meet NEC/CEC standards and the environmental extremes of Alaska and West Texas. From icy tundra to desert heat, our systems are built to perform where others fail. Our licensed electricians install, troubleshoot, and maintain electrical infrastructure ranging from 480V MCCs to low-voltage control wiring in hazardous (Class I, Div I) environments. […]
Automation & Controls
Modern automation systems are the backbone of safe, efficient industrial operations. At Koniag Energy & Water, we specialize in the design, programming, and deployment of PLC and SCADA systems engineered for harsh environments and mission-critical reliability. Whether replacing obsolete platforms like SLC-500 and GE 90-30, or integrating distributed I/O for remote operations, our team delivers […]
