Louth Callan has announced the mechanical completion of the Mousam River solar park, a 28-megawatt facility located in Sanford, Maine. This technical milestone confirms that all civil, structural, and electrical works have been finalised, allowing the transition to commissioning and grid connection operations.

An integrated infrastructure delivered to industry standards

The project, led by Louth Callan as the main construction partner, mobilised technical and human resources over several months to meet utility-scale energy sector requirements. All operations were carried out internally, from site preparation to the installation of electrical connection systems.

The construction of the solar park also generated significant local economic activity, relying heavily on regional subcontractors and workforce. The project is now in a pre-operational phase, with testing underway ahead of commercial electricity production expected in the coming weeks.

A structuring development for the solar sector

The Mousam River project forms part of a broader range of initiatives led by Louth Callan on the US market. The company, traditionally active in energy infrastructure construction, is pursuing a strategy to expand its operations into several new segments, including geothermal facilities, electrical substations, and thermal power plants.

This cross-sector positioning enables the firm to offer engineering and construction solutions covering the entire project lifecycle, while strengthening its competitiveness in large-scale public tenders.

Expanded presence across the US territory

The mechanical delivery of the Mousam River site confirms Louth Callan’s ability to deploy complex projects within controlled timelines. This achievement adds to a portfolio of ongoing projects across multiple US states, in a context of accelerated modernisation of energy infrastructure.

The company plans to ramp up operations in the coming months, with several new projects currently under negotiation. The experience gained on Mousam River serves as an operational benchmark for its future large-scale renewable and conventional energy deployments.
