In 1995, Mortenson grasped the opportunity to enter into the uncharted territory of renewable energy by constructing its first wind power facility. From that first project, Mortenson has become a leading builder of wind power projects in North America, capturing more than 25 percent of that market.  Mortenson has been at the center of constructing nearly 100 wind power projects, totaling approximately 10,000 megawatts across the U.S. and Canada.

In 2006, Mortenson expanded its renewable energy footprint by becoming actively engaged in the biofuels, solar, and hydro markets. For the biofuels market place, Mortenson has focused its efforts on the “next generation” of biofuels by supporting customers in their research and development efforts, including the design and construction of their pilot scale facilities.  In terms of the solar energy markets, Mortenson has been engaged in preplanning efforts, including the design and construction of photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP), for projects throughout the U.S.  We see the solar energy market as providing substantial potential for future success and have dedicated resources to these renewable energy markets.

Mortenson builds renewable power facilities, but more specifically, we are dedicated to providing efficient, quality solutions that meet the needs of each customer.  Our team members truly believe in serving the customer's interests and building strong, enduring partnerships. With 90 percent of our work coming from repeat customers, the Renewable Energy Groups are committed to delivering the best experience in the industry.
