Destin-based Panhandle Power Solutions has secured a design-build contract with NASA to replace electrical distribution lines at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

  • The project involves replacing approximately four miles of B-Line overhead 15kV electrical distribution lines at the space center. The work will also include civil site operations such as trenching, boring and installing concrete pads.

“This award signifies our unwavering commitment to the upkeep and advancement of NASA’s electrical infrastructure,” said Josh Bettinger, VP of Federal at PPS. “We are proud to continue our partnership with NASA, leveraging our expertise to support their critical missions.”

Throughout the project, the Destin company will work closely with NASA’s Environmental Assurance Branch to conduct biological surveys and carefully plan power outages to minimize disruption to essential systems including water, fire detection and protection, and air handling.

The contract adds to PPS’s growing portfolio of electrical distribution and transmission projects for federal clients.

The company, backed by Bristol Bay Industrial, specializes in providing turnkey engineering, procurement and construction solutions with a focus on complex power systems and mission-critical facilities supporting national defense.
