Infrastructure & Energy Alternatives, Inc. announced an alliance with Logistec USA Inc., a subsidiary of Logistec Corporation, a cargo handling and marine services provider with 25 port locations within the U.S.

IEA will use its engineering, procurement, and construction solutions with Logistec’s cargo handling capabilities in support of new utility-scale offshore wind developments along the U.S. East Coast.

“As a leading EPC company serving the domestic onshore wind industry, IEA is uniquely positioned to capitalize on a long-term trend toward increased investment in offshore wind development,” said JP Roehm, CEO, IEA.  “We believe this alliance will allow for improved logistics, supply chain, and material handling capability along the East Coast corridor where Logistec has a significant geographic presence, one well-suited to service planned offshore wind developments in the region.”
