NV5 awarded $11 million to support electrical utility distribution
(UI) – NV5 Global, Inc. has been awarded $11 million in contracts to support the safety and reliability of electrical utility distribution. NV5 will provide engineering design, electrical engineering, surveying, and owner’s engineer services for these projects to harden the electrical grid and improve electrical service reliability.
In the Pacific Northwest, NV5 was selected for $9.4 million in utility hardening and grid connectivity projects. NV5 will provide owner’s engineering and utility design services for the underground conversion of approximately 34 miles of power lines.
A utility in California also selected NV5 for a $1.5 million geospatial corridor mapping project for a 48-mile utility corridor. NV5 will derive planimetric and topographic data from lidar and imagery to provide engineering grade data for engineers to re-route a major transmission line.
“NV5 continues to pioneer innovative approaches to utility undergrounding, fire hardening, and asset management that provide a competitive advantage when pursuing new projects and continue to fuel NV5’s utility services growth,” said Dickerson Wright, PE, Chairman and CEO of NV5.
