Featured Project
69kV/12kV Substation Rebuild
Orbital provided the engineering services required for an upgrade to an existing substation 69kV substation. The existing substation had two incoming 69kV feeds, two 28 MVA transformers, two outdoor 1200A transformer secondary breakers, and six outdoor 800A reclosers. Rather than maintain the existing outdoor design, the upgraded station included a new double ended switchgear.
Orbital Engineering Strengthens Gulf Coast Presence with H&K Acquisition

Orbital Engineering, Inc. is proud to be certified as a veteran owned business. Orbital Engineering, Inc. is certified by the National Veteran Business Development Council. Because the existing Federal Government CVE Veteran Owned Business Certification only covers small businesses, medium and large businesses are left with no acceptable mechanism for establishing bona fide veteran owned business status. Thus, the National Veteran Business Development Council was created for the purpose of providing a credible and reliable certifying authority that would ensure that valid documentation exists of a business’ Veteran ownership and control.
