Parsons Corporation announced that the company was awarded the LTC Hernan G. Pesquera Army Reserve Center Microgrid contract by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Louisville District. The $20 million contract, including base plus options, to enhance energy resilience and sustainability for the Pesquera Army Reserve Center in Puerto Rico consists of a 610-day period of performance and is new work for the company. Under this contract, Parsons will deliver critical infrastructure protection capabilities designed to enhance energy reliability, resilience, and sustainability for the Army Reserve Center in Juana Diaz, Puerto Rico, including installing security measures, generators, photovoltaic cells, a Battery Energy Storage System, microgrid controllers, and all necessary cabling to ensure a robust and efficient microgrid system.
This award grows Parsons’ work supporting Puerto Rico’s infrastructure. In November 2023, the company announced its inclusion on a multiple award indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity task order contract for the Puerto Rico Power System Stabilization Project. The $5 billion ceiling value contract by the USACE Savannah District is to provide temporary power generation for the stabilization of Puerto Rico’s power grid, supporting the government’s request for assistance and aiding residents of the island as they recover from natural disasters.
