Utility-Scale Solar Site Work
Grading, stormwater, access, erosion control, and site logistics for utility-scale solar projects.
Before the panels, the site has to work.
Before a single panel or pile goes in, a solar site is a heavy civil job. Clearing, grading, stormwater, erosion controls, access roads, and material logistics all have to work together. We self-perform that civil scope.
We were doing concrete, general site development, and energy work before moving into solar. We bring that experience to the plans, the construction sequence, the earthwork balance, and the field decisions that keep water and equipment moving where they should.
What we self-perform on a solar site.
Grading & earthwork
Clearing, cut and fill, subgrade preparation, and pad grading to keep racking rows and equipment pads on plan and within tolerance.
Stormwater basins & pipe
Sediment and stormwater basins, outfalls, and the storm pipe network that carries a solar field through construction and into permanent operation.
Erosion & sediment control
Super silt fence, stabilized construction entrances, matting, seeding, and inspection-ready E&S controls. See our E&S control work.
Access roads & logistics
Stone entrances, timber mat roads over soft ground, and staging that keeps trucks, deliveries, and crews moving without tearing up the site.
Recycled Aggregate & On-Site Crushing
Recycled aggregate and on-site crushing that cut hauling and quarry trips. More on Recycled Aggregate & On-Site Crushing.
GC or self-performing sub
We can join an EPC team as the self-performing civil subcontractor, lead the civil scope, or act as the general contractor when the project needs one.
Move the dirt on paper before moving it with equipment.
That is how Jason McConnell describes constructability planning. Reviewing sequence, basin conversions, and the site earthwork balance early can prevent late-stage soil imports and extra material handling.
The same owners who plan and price the work stay involved when site conditions change and a field decision has to be made.
