Evidence reviewed · Abilene, Texas · Data centers
A distinct power-delivery package
Mortenson identifies itself as Lancium’s power-delivery EPC in Abilene, covering substations, transmission and interconnection. Its account describes a 1 GW substation energized with temporary transformers, followed by permanent replacements.
Mortenson project account ↗Publication date not stated; reviewed September 25, 2026.
Crusoe separately names DPR, Rosendin and Southland among its Abilene building-delivery partners. That review does not assign every trade package or future building award.

What a staffing team can investigate
Our interpretation: the documented power scope makes electrical delivery, testing and commissioning relevant research areas. Inspect the named employers and their advertised requirements. The evidence does not establish open staffing contracts or future headcount.
