Sharpe says Rising Edge also
has the operating authority on
the substation until full genera-
tion, an aspect that contractors
rarely have the opportunity to
do. “Our scope includes the
design, procurement, and build
for the collector system as well
as the civil work which includes
roads
and
underground
cabling,” says Sharpe. “This
summer our crews will hit full
stride and by the fourth quar-
ter of the year, the project will
begin commercial operation.
For our team, everyone takes
great pleasure seeing a project
build from start to finish. There
are few better feelings in this
business.”
Proudly Albertan, Rising Edge
is enjoying steady growth,
now diversified substantially
throughoutCanadaand intothe
United States. Going forward,
the team is focusing its proven
model on growing its Atlantic,
North Carolina, and Califor-
nian divisions. “I think the best
word for it is ‘reliability’,” says
Sharpe, on why clients choose
Rising Edge. “We deliver their
projects safely. We deliver
their projects aimed at the
highest standards of quality
in the industry, and we deliver
their projects on-time and
on-budget,” says Sharpe. “All
of these things are engrained
in everything we do and, as a
result, our clients know they
can rely on that level of excel-
lence. We feel our clients come
to Rising Edge because they
know they can rely on us.”
