Video Description

Power enables modern life, but it's not witchcraft (believe it or not). This brings us to today's project—SunZia transmission, a three-gigawatt HVDC transmission line spanning 550 miles from the nation's largest clean energy project to Arizona and beyond. To make it happen, Quanta Services is on the scene with many of its subsidiaries, including Winco Powerline Services, a company specializing in aerial line work using helicopters. It's as neat as it sounds!
