Utility companies and data center operators are expected to invest billions of dollars into large scale capital projects for power generation and grid infrastructure over the next five to ten years. Matrix can help companies protect their investment by providing high quality, streamlined support. By offering a broader range of project requirements, Matrix is a more efficient and cost-effective solution. Companies can feel confident that with Matrix, their project will be constructed to the highest quality and standards, making them able to withstand the world’s growing energy demands.
Whether utility companies are looking to make upgrades to existing substations or construct entirely new substations, MNAC provides complete procurement and construction services. This includes hauling and setting of major substation components and transformer dress out and testing.
In addition to the amount of power needed to run data centers, the centers are hypersensitive to power fluctuations. Battery storage offers a way to filter incoming power from the grid to ensure a clean power supply.
Whether it’s onsite power generation or utility-scale power generation, Matrix has the experience and expertise to successfully support your power demands.
Matrix NAC was awarded the first coastal wind farm project in the eastern United States. The project in Atlantic City, NJ, included the construction and installation of a 26,000 volt collection system, including turbines, wiring and controls as well as all the substation modifications necessary to incorporate the system into the power grid.

Data Center Boom
Through our operating companies, Matrix Service Company provides both power generation and power delivery solutions for utility companies and data center operators seeking reliable, sustainable energy to meet the current and growing power demand.
The U.S. houses over 5,000 data centers, about 33% of data centers in the world, and with the rapid growth of AI, more data centers – and ultimately more energy – will be needed over the next five years to meet demand. Additionally, data center sites are expanding and being built to larger capacities than ever before. Data centers that previously had an average capacity of 20 megawatts are now being built at 1,000 megawatts at a single site.
While there is a wide range of projections, the increase in data centers and their capacity is expected to increase overall U.S. power consumption. Data center power consumption is currently a 4% of U.S. electricity generation and could increase to between 5% to 9% annually by 2030. With this growth comes the need for reliable, sustainable energy and significant upgrades to the current grid system.
Matrix Service Company’s operating companies are total solutions providers with a broad range of expertise in substation upgrades and construction as well as backup energy solutions. Matrix offers complete life cycle solutions to supports companies through all aspects of a project from the conceptual development, through economic evaluation and planning, to EPC project execution.
