Overview

G2 Consulting Group understands the growing importance of renewable energy in the United States and it has positioned itself to be a key player in the power and energy sector by providing geotechnical services to companies who design and construct solar sites. Typically, these projects run on very tight timelines and cover multiple states. For example, during a tight two-month period (November 2, 2018 – January 3, 2019), G2 provided geotechnical services for 12 solar power plant sites in six states (Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Texas, and Virginia).

G2 performed  geotechnical investigations that included soil borings, test pits, and pile loads tests. This was a multi-state, multi-project, multi-drillers operation that involved a team of 12 G2 staff members. The investigations covered 6,747 acres (10.6 miles) and included 78 soil borings and 926 laboratory tests.
