Earl Austin
President & CEO, Quanta Services
aka Duke Austin
“We announced an investment of $500 million to $700 million over the next several years in our power transformer manufacturing facilities.”
“We have outlined an opportunity to more than double the earnings power of this company by 2030.”
“What ran through everything we presented in our Investor Day was one word, certainty — execution certainty, labor certainty, supply chain certainty, schedule certainty.”
“Most of it is, I would say 95% of it's not in backlog either. Those big projects, the 765 corridors, 345, 500, all that bigger work is just starting. A lot of it's in engineering.”
“We did the breaker deal with HICO. I thought that was a critical path for us, the high voltage breakers are very difficult to get.”
“Anything complicated, anything with a higher voltage, the higher the voltage, the better for Quanta. I'll just say it like that. We love complicated high voltage infrastructure.”
