The American Grid Company is building a national portfolio of industrial contractors equipped to manage every phase of physical infrastructure required to bring data centers, EV charging networks, drone logistics hubs, autonomous robotics, and next-generation manufacturing facilities online. AGC aims to be the one-stop solution for decision makers in development, municipalities, general contracting, utilities, and technology—helping them complete last-mile energy and utility upgrades, whether powering a data center, charging a robotaxi fleet, modernizing a new building, or supporting the demands of AI in mission-critical facilities like hospitals.
The First Vertically Integrated, End-to-End Portfolio For Grid Modernization Projects
Grid modernization is still in its early stages—most decision-makers lack the experience and guidance to navigate it effectively. Local utilities often dictate the pace and cost. At the same time, the expert contractors capable of executing the work are typically small, family-owned businesses with limited visibility, no marketing presence, and full workloads. There is no centralized leadership or national platform to coordinate efforts. The result: a fragmented, inefficient industry where dozens of siloed contractors are required to complete a single project. AGM is looking to solve that.
The AGC Portfolio Will be Equipped to Manage Every Phase of Grid Modernization
AGC is made up of seasoned civil and utility contractors with a strong track record of delivering complex infrastructure projects. These companies are equipped to handle every stage of utility deployment—from early coordination with power providers to final energization—bringing real-world expertise to high-demand, mission-critical work. By combining local contractors who understand the terrain with a centralized platform that streamlines the work, AGC enables decision-makers to move faster, reduce friction, and deliver fully integrated infrastructure with confidence.

The Key Decision Makers Who Will Benefit From The Porfolio
Key Decision Makers
-
General contractors are often stuck coordinating multiple utility vendors, which leads to delays, cost overruns, and project risk. AGC is the go-to solution for utility scopes on complex jobs, offering a one-stop shop of insured, local contractors who are experienced and ready to mobilize. You deal with one contract, one point of contact, and one unified delivery team—from trench to power-on—so you can stay focused on the build, not the grid.
-
New infrastructure technologies—like self-driving cars, EV fleets, battery systems, and AI-powered devices—require more than software and ambition. They need on-the-ground execution to bring their products to life.
AGC helps technology companies navigate the messy, local realities of grid deployment:
Where can you pull power?
Who owns the easement?
What city requires trench inspections?
How long does permitting take?
We bridge the gap between national tech ambitions and local, real-world utility execution—with the teams, relationships, and permitting pathways already in place. Whether you're siting autonomous chargers, mapping fiber and power routes for drone infrastructure, or deploying AI-integrated HVAC systems, AGC provides the boots-on-the-ground infrastructure layer needed to scale.
-
Modern building developers aren’t just pouring foundations—they’re being asked to deliver energy-ready, future-proof sites. But navigating utility connections, trenching, duct bank construction, and energization timelines is a massive undertaking. From load calculations to final meter set, the utility process is one of the most misunderstood—and most delay-prone—phases of any project.
AGC helps developers avoid the chaos. We manage everything from early coordination with utilities to final power connection, ensuring your project is designed with the capacity needed not just for today’s code, but for the EV chargers, data systems, and smart infrastructure tenants expect tomorrow.
With AGC, you get a single interface for all utility scopes—permit tracking, duct bank construction, conduit, vaults, inspections, energization—so your timelines stay on track and your development is truly grid-ready.

Mission-critical bases and defense campuses require grid upgrades with absolute reliability and discretion. AGC provides proven, pre-vetted contractors who understand the chain of command and the importance of secure execution.
-
Utilities need more than compliance—they need field partners who understand their systems, respect their standards, and can execute safely, consistently, and at scale. That’s where AGC comes in.
We are vertically integrated into the utility ecosystem, with regional contractors who have decades of experience working alongside utility crews, inspectors, and engineering departments. From distribution upgrades to new service requests, AGC is built to bridge the gap between utilities and the end-users pulling power.
We help utilities extend infrastructure efficiently, manage load growth, and reduce friction with developers, municipalities, and technology providers—all through a platform that brings field execution and utility coordination under one roof.
