POWER TRANSMISSION
POWER INDUSTRY CHALLENGES
Sterling crews have worked on powerline sites of every size and scope, from routine substation maintenance and line upgrades to crossing rivers with high-voltage transmission lines. Our team understands high-stakes environmental obstacles and the hazards of inclement weather — and has the expertise to help. Explore the critical role of site access mats and how they can improve the efficiency and safety of your next project.
Emergency Access
Emergency grid maintenance doesn’t wait for fair weather or backordered supplies. Sterling has the inventory and expertise to get the right solution in place quickly, so you can get your customers back online, faster.
Tough Conditions
TerraLam mats can simplify access to remote powerline sites, even in muddy, icy, or other difficult conditions, while protecting the ground from environmental damage.
Heavy Equipment
When building and maintaining the power distribution network requires cranes and other heavy equipment that can compact soil and damage the ground in other ways, Sterling’s heavy-duty mat are designed to withstand the weight, saving restoration costs.
Water Crossings
Sterling can build temporary water crossings and access roads that provide safe, stable routes for crews and equipment, ensuring reliable passage to even the most challenging jobsites.
Farmland
Powerlines often run through farmlands meaning poorly planned access roads can cause significant crop loss and soil compaction. TerraLam mats will reduce ground disturbance, while Sterling optimizes access routes to reduce restoration costs and potential payouts.
