    🚆 Full speed ahead! The Sepulveda Transit Corridor project in Los Angeles has successfully completed the PDA Phase 3 design, meeting all deliverables and bringing us closer to a transit solution for Angelenos. This monumental project is set to offer faster, greener travel options for the LA community.   We're particularly excited about the UCLA stop, which is expected to become the biggest hub of ridership, especially near the campus's medical center. Imagine traveling from the San Fernando Valley to the Westside of Los Angeles in just 20 minutes!?👏   Together with our partners, Meridiam and American Triple I, #Bechtel is committed to developing a world-class rail line that connects our community through being active participants in local areas, creating jobs, providing training opportunities, and partnering with local suppliers and businesses. We are driven by the positive impact this project will have on so many lives.   📽️ ⬇ See we what mean: https://lnkd.in/g9mmnEK5

    Hydropower is one the oldest and most reliable sources of renewable energy, and Pumped Storage Hydro (PSH) is becoming an increasingly important solution to supporting the energy transition and maintaining grid resilience.    PSH is enabling access to clean, renewable, and independent energy by increasing grid stability and power availability as variable renewables, such as solar and wind, take up a greater percentage of global grids. ➡️ Here's how it works: By taking advantage of excess grid electricity outside of peak demand, water is moved from a source of lower elevation to a higher elevation. Then, during peak demand, the water flows down the same path through a turbine, generating electricity.      For more than 80 years, #Bechtel has been building hydroelectric facilities, including having designed or installed 50 hydro plants and more than 100 dams. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/d7EvWwy6     #WithHydropower #PumpedStorage 

    Thank you to all the attendees and speakers at today's webinars launching the first industry-led guidance note on derisking investments in pumped storage hydropower. Conversations focused on enabling new pumped storage hydropower developments across the world to provide enough energy storage to meet net zero targets.  If you didn't dial in, why not? Watch this space for access to the recordings of the sessions including valuable insights from industry experts on de-risking pumped storage hydropower. Special thanks to all our speakers: ➡Malcolm Turnbull, IHA President and Former Prime Minister of Australia ➡Chris McMonagle, Global Business Development Manager, Bechtel CorporationHelen Barbour-Bourne, National Sector Lead, GHDJoaquín Jiménez Labadie, Global Head of Dams & Marine Works, ACCIONARoddy Cormack, Senior Associate, DentonsMichael Morgenroth, Senior Principal, Hydropower & Dams - Canada, Stantec ➡Olivier Tricca, Power Engineer, European Investment Bank (EIB) Bank ➡Daire Reilly, Director, Commercial, Brookfield RenewableRebecca Ellis, Senior Energy Policy Manager, IHA And thank you for the valuable contributions of all attendees who attended the sessions.

    This just in: Our partners at Sempra Infrastructure have awarded our #Bechtel team the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract for the Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 project in Port Arthur, Texas!👏🎉   "We are excited for the opportunity to advance our partnership with Sempra Infrastructure on the Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 project, a vital project that will play a crucial role in meeting the world's increasing need for cleaner and more reliable energy," said Paul Marsden, President of Bechtel Energy. "This partnership positions Bechtel and Sempra Infrastructure to not only deliver a transformative energy infrastructure project but also bring additional significant economic growth and development opportunities to the local community."   This award builds on our ongoing partnership with Sempra Infrastructure. Together, we are also delivering the Port Arthur LNG Phase 1 project that consists of trains 1 and 2, as well as two LNG storage tanks and associated facilities, which is well underway with expected commercial operation dates for train 1 and train 2 in 2027 and 2028, respectively. And once operating at full capacity, Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 will nearly double the Port Arthur plant's total LNG production capacity to up to 26 million metric tons per annum!   #Bechtel has designed and built about 30% of the world’s LNG capacity. We are proud to help deliver projects that power communities around the world. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gyg9TGdk

    🎉Congratulations to Plant Vogtle and our partners at Georgia Power Company and Southern Nuclear for being named POWER magazine's Plant of the Year!🎉 Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4 made history this year by bringing clean, carbon-free, nuclear power to the grid—today, helping power 500,000 homes and businesses across Georgia. #Bechtel, joining the project in 2017, completed the construction of both units, representing the first successful start-to-finish construction of a new nuclear plant in the U.S. in over 30 years. #Bechtel chairman and CEO Brendan Bechtel shared insights on the future of nuclear power: "Plant Vogtle is already moving us in the right direction. It has begun rebuilding the U.S.'s muscle memory in nuclear construction, including re-establishing critical supply chains and a workforce with the specialized skills and hands-on experience that are transferable to future projects." 👉 Read Brendan's full Op-Ed in POWER magazine here: https://lnkd.in/ezBGsQUW For over 70 years, Bechtel has helped deliver nuclear power solutions for customers, adding over 76,000 megawatts of capacity worldwide. Our commitment to excellence, safety, and sustainability drives us as we support energy and climate security goals with projects like the AP1000 units in Poland and the Natrium Advanced Reactor Demonstration in Wyoming.

    It's an exciting time for our Bechtel team in California. We were selected by the Santa Clara VTA to provide construction management services for the next phase of the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system's Silicon Valley extension—connecting residents of North San Jose and Santa Clara to the Bay Area's iconic transportation system.   BART holds a special significance for Bechtel. We helped lead the design and construction of the original BART system in 1962. You can see in these photos how proud my grandfather, Steve Bechtel Jr., and the team were when they celebrated the completion of the 3.6-mile-long "Transbay Tube" between San Francisco and Oakland in 1969—considered an amazing feat at the time.   Fast forward nearly 60 years, our team remains incredibly excited and grateful for the opportunity to build on this progress and connect even more communities across California. We're proud to be back on site with our partners at the VTA to help deliver the next phase of this iconic transportation system. Congratulations, team. Onward!   Pulling out a few images from the archives… Check out some photos from our previous work with BART. #ToTheExtraordinary https://lnkd.in/eij3dEza

    To wrap up #NationalSafetyMonth this June, we're reflecting on our new partnership with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) we launched earlier this year to address a critical safety issue—protecting our colleagues' mental health. Today, the U.S. construction industry faces a tragic reality—having one of the highest suicide rates of any occupation. In fact, the number of lives lost to suicide in the industry is nearly 5x higher than the number of lives lost in jobsite safety incidents. These are safety statistics that together, we must change. Our multiyear partnership with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is an effort to do just that. To start, our goal is to reach more than 500,000 U.S. construction workers over the next five years by developing industry-specific suicide prevention programs and resources. More here: https://lnkd.in/gY8ikWhb #Bechtel chairman and CEO Brendan Bechtel, recently shared the parallels that we can draw between the progress we've made with physical safety, to how we can better care for our colleagues' mental health: "30 years ago, [Bechtel] and some of our peers decided the only acceptable number of people to lose or to hurt on a construction site, is zero. And it took us 30 years to get there, but we're there… There's a playbook that our industry knows how to execute really, really well because we've done it with physical safety—there's no reason we couldn't do the same for mental health, particularly if it's killing five times as many people as physical safety is on our jobs." 📽️⬇️ Learn more and get involved:🔗https://lnkd.in/gY8ikWhb #NationalSafetyMonth
