Water Treatment Plant

CASE STUDY

Sawgrass Reuse Water Treatment Plant, Phase 1

In South Florida, up to 50% of available drinking water is used for irrigation. Primoris helped the city of Sunrise, Florida, extend its water supplies and satisfy new regulatory requirements by constructing a facility to produce 2 million gallons per day of highly treated reuse water. This water can be used by the municipality for irrigation on public property or process water in its treatment facilities. It can also be sold as non-potable water to customers or neighboring municipalities.

The project, constructed adjacent to the Sawgrass utilities water and wastewater treatment facility, takes secondary effluent from the facility and treats it to tertiary reuse standards. As distribution infrastructure is added, the volume of reuse water can be increased.

From Dairy Farm to Diesel Fuel

CASE STUDY

From Dairy Farm to Diesel Fuel

Renewable natural gas and gas-to-liquids projects that were deferred during the pandemic are now moving into front-end engineering. Right at the end of the 2Q2021, Primoris was awarded a contract for the design and supply of a Gas-to-Liquids plant in the US.

This facility will take dairy farm waste and produce high-quality diesel fuel. The process creates dual environmental benefits by increasing the sustainability of the dairy farm and producing high-quality transportation fuels with zero sulfur emissions. This project started in late June 2021 with a 12-month schedule, which includes engineering, procurement and module fabrication.

Greener Fuels

CASE STUDY

Greener Fuels

As traditional oil and gas producers seek ways to reduce their greenhouse gas footprint, Primoris is working side-by-side with them to retrofit refineries and adapt them to use renewable resources.

We have multiple projects underway that involve retrofitting oil refining facilities to process biofuels and vegetable oils to produce green diesel. Our commitment is to support all our customers in finding and implementing environmentally responsible solutions.

Utility Scale Solar

CASE STUDY

Utility Scale Solar Projects

In partnership between Primoris Renewable Energy, our customer and the Moapa Band of Paiutes, a 380mw solar energy facility was designed and constructed on the Moapa Indian Reservation in Nevada. The project employed over 150 tribal members during peak construction and purchased goods and services from the Moapa tribal nation during the construction of the power plant.

The Moapa facility is just one of the many projects through which Primoris is enabling the adoption of this renewable resource by constructing utility-scale solar energy systems and power plants in states across the southwestern United States. In operation, these facilities emit no pollutants and create no greenhouse gases, making them a remarkably sustainable energy option and contributing to a 22 percent annual increase in solar energy consumption in the United States.

Restoring Water

CASE STUDY

Restoring Power

When a catastrophic ice storm in February 2021 left 80% of a cooperative’s customers across 18 counties in the northeast without electricity, Primoris personnel and equipment were on hand to help restore power as quickly as possible. The task included replacing hundreds of downed transmission poles, removing huge trees that had fallen across power lines, and repairing or replacing countless spans of transmission wire.

After working continuously for 13 days, crews from the cooperative, Primoris and other contracting partners – totaling more than 900 crew members – were able to restore power to all customers. Primoris crews and others continued the cleanup and repair process another two weeks before all systems were fully functioning.

The CEO of the cooperative praised the “professionalism, positive attitude, work ethic and resolve to restore electricity to our members” of our Primoris crews, as well as their dedication to working safely as they completed the largest power restoration effort in the cooperative’s 84-year history.
