Bechtel announced the completion of the Cutlass Solar project in Fort Bend, Texas, adding 140 MWDC to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas’ Houston Zone.

Bechtel partnered with Advanced Power in the development of Cutlass Solar. Cutlass Solar is the fourth project Bechtel has delivered for Advanced Power. Advanced Power and Bechtel developed innovative contracting solutions to advance the project and minimize completion delays.

Bechtel performed the engineering, procurement, and construction, and provided full turnkey services including the procurement and delivery of nearly 345,000 solar panels — navigating shipping and logistics constraints and the US import requirements in record time.

Bechtel is working on over two gigawatts of solar and wind power projects in various stages of development and construction throughout the United States.
