AVSE II awarded Fluor a lump-sum contract in 2011 to design and build the facility, which provides clean energy to approximately 30,000 homes.
From its Irvine, California office, Fluor's engineers designed the AVSE II facility.

For the construction phase, Fluor self-performed the work, which included installing more than 1,000 miles of wire and cable and driving more than 130,000 piles.
Fluor's project team achieved the significant safety milestone of 500,000 safe work hours despite working in the unforgiving desert heat.
AVSE II also awarded Fluor a five-year operations and maintenance (O&M) contract at the new facility. With this award, Fluor continues its 35-year legacy of providing O&M services to clients in the power sector.
