- We are an “Owners EPC”. We design and build our renewable energy projects as if we would be the long-term asset owner. Our extensive experience allows our team to understand the project and project owner’s needs, both operational and financial, which enables us to provide innovative solutions that will craft the right balance of design efficiency, construction cost, project safety, quality and schedule economy.
- Quality: We implement a utility-grade, ISO 9001-based, QA/QC program that is custom tailored for the needs of each specific project.
- Safety: Safety First, Safety Always. Safety is our primary focus and concern on each project. We practice a proactive, relationship-based approach to project safety management. By employing this approach and focusing on team building, we create and maintain a safety culture where safety, quality and productivity are not conflicting goals, but components of a successful project. To date, the Renewable Energy Division has zero injuries, zero OSHA violations and an EMR of 0.0.
- We provide solutions, not excuses. We are committed to crafting solutions that overcome project challenges. Through close collaboration with our customers, suppliers, partners and employees, we are able to custom tailor our innovative solutions to best fit each project’s unique needs.
