Our Projects

Elm City, North Carolina

Site Civil & Foundation:

Crowder installed over 5,000 ft. of direct burial conduit which had to be isolated from the foundations due to the soil conditions. 22 foundations were formed and poured, including 12 battery foundations and 8 MVS Skid foundations, as well as foundations for both the MV Switchgear and Site Control Center Enclosure. Significant modifications to the existing substation were required for the installation of the new termination structure to integrate the BESS System. Crowder also regraded the BESS area for proper drainage, and repaired or improved roadways throughout the site to allow for delivery of the new BESS equipment.
