Complete in-house construction

From site preparation to energization.

Bring site work, foundations, structural and electrical construction, and commissioning together under one contractor. Our construction crews and electrical specialists coordinate the interfaces between each phase.

At existing substations, our crews replace foundations and equipment, build expansions, and test protection and control systems.
