Hydroelectric

WHOLE PROJECT CAPABILITY—ONE SOURCE ACCOUNTABILITY

With more than 30 years of experience with hydroelectric power projects, we work closely with clients to construct new facilities and to retrofit existing, nonpowered dams to become energy-producing resources.

Our capabilities include earth and rock excavation; intake, penstock, and powerhouse construction; and turbine and generator installation. Ames crews are accustomed to working in unpredictable conditions and remote locations with high environmental sensitivity. When you need a partner that’s up to the task, we’re ready to deploy and deliver.
