Electrical

Originally a 10-week timeline, Egan completed a 65-acre solar farm in St. Joseph, Minn. in a compressed seven-week schedule.
A total of 28,188 fixed panels were installed across three jobsites which produces power of 9.53 MW.
Prefabrication work completed in our shop included pre-mounting 196 inverters in combinations of 1, 2, or 3 inverters to a preassembled strut rack system. Egan also prefabricated underground conduit stub-ups.
In addition to the inverters and solar panels, the racking system was also installed by Egan. The team installed all medium voltage work including nine Points of Interconnect (POI) to meet Xcel Energy systems.
