SOLV Energy Secures Over 6 Gigawatts Of New Project Awards Across The United States

At the CLEANPOWER 2025 conference held in Phoenix this week, SOLV Energy announced that it has secured contracts from several major developers to construct over 6 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale solar and energy storage projects across the United States. The upcoming projects are spread across multiple states, including Arizona, Mississippi, Nevada, Oregon, Texas, and California.

These projects include developments from long-standing clients such as Arevon, Clēnera, and Sol Systems, as well as new partnerships with companies like NewSun Energy, Enfinity Global, and Panamint Capital. Construction on these projects is expected to begin in 2025 and will continue in the years that follow.

To meet the increasing demand for clean energy nationwide, SOLV Energy is making major investments in workforce development. The company is actively hiring and training regional project teams, including local project managers with expertise in regional permitting, environmental regulations, and site-specific conditions. This regional focus is aimed at streamlining project execution and ensuring compliance with local requirements.

George Hershman, CEO of SOLV Energy, said in a statement, “Demand for energy is continuing to grow rapidly and we are committed to investing in the capabilities our customers need for larger and increasingly complex power projects. The significant number of projects that we have been awarded so far this year shows that customers recognize the investments we have made to expand our capabilities, and our value as a true lifecycle provider.”

In addition, SOLV Energy is expanding its in-house construction capabilities to improve efficiency, enhance quality, and lower costs for its clients. Earlier this year, in January, the company acquired SDI Services, LLC (formerly Sacramento Drilling), a company specializing in foundation solutions for solar and transmission and distribution (T&D) projects. This acquisition has brought key capabilities such as solar predrill and pile foundation work under SOLV Energy’s direct management, allowing the company to better handle complex projects in challenging terrain and varying environmental conditions.
