SUBSTATION

Proficiency, Always On Line

Reliability and expertise are the keys to optimal results, and Mountain Power Construction has been delivering just that to clients – for decades. Our experience spans substation projects from small rebuilds to large turnkey projects, at sizes up to 345KV. With capabilities that include line position additions, breaker position additions, upgrades, demolitions and new construction, there are no challenges we can’t solve. Well versed in dealing with remote locations as well as highly populated urban areas, each project we undertake is handled in a highly collaborative and flexible manner. And, we offer both design/build and turnkey approaches, depending on specific project parameters.
