HATTIESBURG, Miss. Dec 17, 2024 –Jones Power has been selected by two of America’s leading utility-scale solar Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) contractors to execute the civil construction scope on two large solar and Battery Energy Storage Solution (BESS) projects, with potential capacity for 290 MW and more than 1GW respectfully. These sites are outside of Phoenix and Tucson, with construction underway on the projects. Jones Power’s project scope is expected to be completed in 2025, with the job outside of Phoenix anticipated to have additional phases of work added which could continue into 2026 or 2027.

Jones Power’s scope of work includes erosion control, clearing, grubbing, construction entrances, earthwork, access roads, laydown yards, and final seeding. To ensure IRA compliance throughout the duration of the project, Jones Power is also leveraging the Power Forward apprenticeship. For both projects, clients can choose to have a Jones Power post-civil site maintenance crew remain onsite throughout pile driving, racking, module installation, electrical work, and commissioning. This team would provide ongoing support by maintaining roads, managing erosion and dust control, performing mowing, and addressing other needs to ensure the successful completion of the project.

Jones Power has been recognized as an industry leader for its Power Forward apprenticeship program, prevailing wage standards, and project documentation process requirements which make Jones Power a leader in IRA compliance.

“We’re pleased to secure repeat business with two very important clients as we expand our footprint of experience in Arizona on these two high-profile projects,” said Jones Power CEO, John Clark.
