Renewable Energy

Kiewit has more than 40 years of experience in developing renewable power projects including wind, solar, geothermal and hydroelectric. Today, these alternative generation sources are more viable and cost effective than ever before, and our innovation-minded approach to project development positions us well to support this growing market. We work with developers, independent power producers (IPPs) and utilities through a variety of project delivery methods, including EPC, to suit the individual needs of each client and project.

Our teams have completed more than 50 North American solar projects in the last 15 years. Our experience in solar power systems includes photovoltaic (PV) projects ranging from 2 MW to over 650 MW, as well as associated battery storage solutions. We also bring decades of experience in electric power generation, transmission and distribution, allowing us to support solar projects of any size or complexity.
