Solano Wind Project - Phase 2

CLIENT: Sacramento Municipal Utility District
LOCATION: Solano, CA

To continue the track record of success for the Solano Wind Project, SMUD retained IEC to support the District in developing an 87MW expansion to the Solano Wind Project. IEC prepared the project technical specifications, managed the submittal process, reviewed technical submittals, provided project engineering and document control, and supplied on-site field engineering and construction management staff. Due to the criticality of unique startup requirements of the project, IEC provided startup coordination to assist the various contractors and SMUD to efficiently work together and avoid needless delays. Because of IEC’s knowledge of the SMUD organization, IEC was able to directly arrange for the scheduling and support of SMUD electrical crews, SPAC personnel, Power System Operators (PSO), power contracts personnel and facilities support. IEC’s project support allowed Phase 2A of this project to be completed with minimal staff and has set the stage for an efficient Phase 2B project.
