Renewables
We provide best-in-class service to solar developers and asset owners. Services include project acquisition and development, construction management, and engineer-procure-construct (EPC) support for the development, execution, and operations of high-quality PV solar projects.
EFFICIENT AND PROVEN PROCESS
Our team has been executing projects together for over a decade.
We have created a technical development and EPC management process that has been tested and continually improved across 1.8GWdc of completed projects in the US and Canada. This approach enables us to provide clients with a higher output, which directly benefits them.
Our experience in renewable project development, financing, engineering/construction, and operations provides an integrated plan that is proactive for future project needs. Making forward-thinking decisions early reduces costs and risks while maximizing project value.
PV SOLAR SERVICES
Our experience in PV Solar services brings you a partner with technical resources, competitive buying power, key supplier relationships, and creative solutions for PV generation. PV generation provides you efficient costs and clean energy generation for your projects.
Areas of
EXPERTISE
Development Cycle
The earlier a project can determine an appropriate engineered solution, the fewer development cycles are required. This reduces direct cost for the project by simplifying the involvement of third parties while also requiring less overhead per project for the operating company.
Construction
Sundt self-performs critical scopes of work in the construction process, including excavation and grading, concrete work, structural steel, and underground utilities, just to name a few. By performing these scopes ourselves, we control critical-path schedule, safety and quality.
Design & Procurement
Our extensive lump-sum EPC project experience allows Sundt to optimize costs while minimizing design iterations. Our approach is to focus on total costs and not component costs while finalizing the equipment selection and layout.
Performance Optimization
We optimize site design early and consider project-specific constraints. This ensures maximum production and revenue from the generating facility, while minimizing potential re-design and associated negotiations down the road. It is important to consider all factors in the site and performance optimization.
Relationship Building
Longstanding and strong relationships with equipment manufacturers, contractors, and service companies are leveraged for competitive pricing, favorable risk terms and low-cost transactions. These relationships also allow for forward technology review as well as personalized service and access from the vendors.
Safety & Quality
Our commitment to safety and quality is proven in the projects we have completed. From the international Quality-Control team we have in China, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, to the craft workers here in the US, we provide a safe place to work, where an individual’s work is valued as an integral part to the project as a whole.
