HOUSTON, June 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Orbital Energy Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: OEG) ("Orbital"), today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orbital Solar Services ("OSS"), a leader in utility-scale solar power generation facilities, has been awarded an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction ("EPC") contract ("the Contract") to construct a 137-megawatt solar farm in Arkansas by a North American, Fortune 100 Energy Company.  The project has an expected total value of over $64.0 million.

The Contract calls for OSS to design, engineer, and produce a utility-scale solar array to be delivered in early 2022. Under the Contract terms, OSS will provide full utility-scale EPC services, including substation construction.

Brandon Martin, OSS's CEO, stated, "This new project with an industry-leading, Fortune 100 energy company, demonstrates the recognition of OSS's technical expertise and abilities from North American energy companies in designing and building these large, complex, utility-scale solar projects. We look forward to commencing work on this project even as we continue to pursue other potential opportunities in this area."
