As one of the few contractors in the Southeast with a dedicated team focused solely on the Hydroelectric field, Crowder brings a superior level of experience and expertise to bear whether working on an upgrade, replacement or enhancement project…both above and below the water line.

All critical elements of a hydro facility are within the realm of our capabilities, including turbines, substations, interconnection, valves, intake structures, hoists, motor controls, instrumentation and electrical. Additionally, our internal 60,000 square foot fabrication shop has produced dozens of trash racks, stop logs, accessways, hoist frames, platforms and more for our hydro projects, providing additional economies and flexibility.

Our teams’ reputation for quality, reliability, workmanship and professionalism is second to none in our region and the main reason our clients in the hydroelectric space have been clients for decades, even specifically requesting key personnel by name. We take very seriously the responsibility of being such a valued partner, addressing the critical, and often highly sensitive and precise work at our clients’ facilities. A sampling of our capabilities is listed below, however we invite you to connect with our Hydro Team to discuss your specific needs.
