Scope Of Work
As prime contractor, JR Merit led a team of more than 25 subcontractors in successfully upgrading multiple elements of the Shoshone Falls Hydroelectric Project systems and infrastructure. The primary purpose of the project was replacing two existing power generation units in the 1907 powerhouse with a single 3.2 MW unit and raising the site’s overall generation capacity to 15 MW. Our work also included improvements to the dam intake, egress, equipment conveyor, power plant, switchgear building, spillway concrete, and access platform.
