 HawaiiTransformer Technologies solved a difficult problem for HECO by performing an On-Site teardown of a 200,000 pound transformer. Since the cost to load, move, and ship such a large unit was extremely high, we offered to send a crew from Oregon. HECO was skeptical, as the last contractor did not perform to acceptable environmental standards. Working with Haztech Environmental Services, Transformer Technologies visited the site in advance and submitted a detailed environmental plan. The transformer dismantling proceeded without incident, on time, and under budget. Savings to HECO exceeded $50,000! |

All work was performed to the customer's satisfaction, while still providing positive revenue. |
