SMALL SCALE EPC

It is fully equipped to meet their distinct demands with full-service turnkey design services, including site survey, fencing and grading, road, transmission lines, substation installations, and electrical module and wiring installation.
"A developer in the EPC space approached us to bid and design their small-scale 25-megawatt solar project. The client had the required funds and resource materials, but lacked the expertise required to execute the project. We were able to leverage our knowledge in sub-contracting and electrical contracting services to enact the plan and meet the client’s requirements. The solar plant project was completed in nine months, giving us our first ever opportunity to enter the small-scale EPC space. That is how it all started.”
