Utility Line Contractors: 2026 Guide for Equipment Lenders

Utility line contractors build, rebuild and maintain the power grid's wires: high-voltage transmission lines, local distribution lines and the substations between them. For large-ticket equipment lenders, they're one of the clearest borrower groups of 2026. Utilities are spending at record levels, grid planners in four regions have approved new 765-kV lines, and the crews doing the work run truck fleets where a single new digger derrick costs $324,871 to $555,059 in public purchase records.

This guide covers who the contractors are, what's being spent, what the equipment costs, how the big firms pay for their fleets, what to underwrite, and where to find these companies in public records.

Last updated: October 6, 2026. Written by Alek Perak, co-founder of Quintel.

Key takeaways

• Utility spending is at a record: Edison Electric Institute members invested $204.1 billion in 2025, the 14th record year in a row, and EEI projects $238.8 billion for 2026.
• The work runs on trucks: Quanta Services alone operates about 80,000 owned and leased units. Public purchase records from 2025 and early 2026 put a new digger derrick at $324,871 to $555,059 and a bucket truck at $247,031 to about $490,700.
• Contractors already finance their fleets: MasTec expects about $285 million of equipment purchases under finance leases and other financing arrangements in 2026, close to its roughly $290 million of capital spending.
• Check who owns the crew: many well-known line contractors are subsidiaries. Irby, PAR Electrical, Wilson Construction and Potelco belong to Quanta. Henkels & McCoy and Intren belong to MasTec, and Sturgeon Electric to MYR Group.
• Underwrite the contract mix: master service agreements make up 41% to 47% of backlog at Quanta and MasTec in their latest filings, but MYR Group notes most contracts, MSAs included, can be terminated on 30 to 90 days' notice.

What is a utility line contractor?

A utility line contractor is a construction firm that builds and maintains electric power lines and substations for investor-owned utilities, electric cooperatives and municipal power systems. The industry shorthand is T&D, for transmission and distribution. Transmission lines move high-voltage power over long distances. Distribution lines carry it from substations to homes and businesses.

Most line contractors earn money three ways:

• Master service agreements (MSAs): multi-year deals to handle a utility's ongoing maintenance, upgrades and smaller jobs. MYR Group says its MSAs typically run one to four years.
• Project work: a specific new line, rebuild or substation, usually bid and priced on its own.
• Storm restoration: emergency crews after hurricanes, ice storms and wildfires. Quanta says this work can "typically yield higher margins due in part to higher equipment utilization," but nobody can schedule it.

The equipment list is long. Quanta's 2025 annual report names bucket trucks, digger derricks, sidebooms, dozers, backhoes, excavators, trenchers, generators, boring machines, cranes, robotic arms, wire pullers and tensioners. Line crews also use conductor reel trailers, track-mounted carriers for soft ground, and directional drills for underground runs.

Why are utility line contractors a strong large-ticket market in 2026?

Because the money behind the work is large, spread over several years, and in many cases already approved. Investor-owned utilities invested a record $204.1 billion in 2025, according to the Edison Electric Institute, up from $177.9 billion in 2024. EEI says capital spending is projected to "jump 17 percent to $238.8 billion" in 2026, and puts the next five years at nearly $1.4 trillion. In EEI's most recent breakdown, a 2025 projection, transmission accounted for $37.6 billion and distribution for $66.0 billion, half of all utility capital spending.

The Census Bureau's construction data shows the same thing. Spending on power construction ran at a $186.0 billion seasonally adjusted annual rate in August 2026, up 8.5% from a year earlier. Private electric construction, a category that mixes power plants with transmission lines and substations, reached $141.2 billion, against $127.4 billion in August 2025.

Load growth is behind it. The Energy Information Administration's October 2026 outlook forecasts commercial-sector electricity demand, which includes data centers, to grow 2.8% in 2027, with industrial demand up 2.7%. Quanta says the strong demand from its utility customers is driven by electricity demand from "data centers and other technology-related dynamics, domestic manufacturing reshoring initiatives and overall electrification trends." Quanta, MasTec, MYR Group and Primoris all reported record backlogs at the end of June 2026.

For a large-ticket desk, the appeal is that fleet needs are big and they repeat. Contractors add equipment crew by crew, and even a small public utility's order runs to seven figures. The City of Lompoc, California put four Altec trucks totaling $1.86 million before its council in a single August 2025 item, and planned to cover $1,385,000 of it with lease financing. A contractor adding crews for a new MSA or a 765-kV line places that kind of order many times over.

Where is the transmission money going?

Much of the new transmission money sits in regional plans built around 765-kV lines. Four grid regions approved them between December 2024 and February 2026:

Plan	Approved	Estimated cost	What it builds
MISO Long Range Transmission Planning, Tranche 2.1	December 12, 2024	$21.8 billion	24 projects and a 3,631-mile 765-kV and 345-kV backbone across the Midwest
Texas Permian Basin plan, 765-kV import paths	April 24, 2025	$10.1 billion (utility estimates, March 2025)	Three 765-kV import paths with about 1,255 miles of new line
SPP 2025 Integrated Transmission Plan	November 2025	$8.6 billion	A regional 765-kV backbone, including 949 miles of new 765-kV line
PJM 2025 Regional Transmission Expansion Plan, Window 1	February 12, 2026	About $11.8 billion	New 500-kV and 765-kV lines across the PJM region

Individual lines are big on their own. In Texas, Oncor's application for a 765-kV line between its Longshore and Drill Hole switching stations estimates the line at $976 million to $1.3 billion over 180 to 215 miles, plus about $728 million for substation facilities.

Federal financing is adding to it. The Department of Energy closed a loan of up to $3.26 billion to AEP Texas in July 2026 to finance about 100 transmission projects spanning roughly 2,800 miles. In October 2025 it closed a $1.6 billion loan guarantee for AEP to reconductor and rebuild around 5,000 miles of transmission lines in Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Oklahoma and West Virginia. In September 2026 it selected 31 grid projects in 26 states for $1.9 billion in federal funding, set to reconductor or rebuild more than 1,500 miles of lines.

For scale, DOE's July 2026 draft transmission needs study says 8,700 to 12,500 circuit-miles of lines above 69 kV were installed each year from 2016 to 2023. MISO's approved backbone alone is 3,631 miles.

Who are the largest utility line contractors?

Four publicly traded contractors report large utility T&D businesses: Quanta Services, MasTec, MYR Group and Primoris. They're too big for most independent lenders, but their filings are the best public read on the market, and their subsidiaries work under names you'll see on job sites.

Company	Total backlog, June 30, 2026	Utility segment	What the filing says
Quanta Services	$53.4 billion, a record	Electric backlog of $43.8 billion; second-quarter revenue of $7.84 billion, 82% of the total	Customers "accelerate investment in the electric grid, power generation and mission-critical infrastructure"
MasTec	$21.4 billion of 18-month backlog, a record	Power Delivery backlog of $6.35 billion; second-quarter revenue of $1.25 billion	Power Delivery revenue rose on transmission and distribution project work and data center work
MYR Group	$3.16 billion, a record	T&D backlog of $1.27 billion; second-quarter revenue of $524.0 million	Utilities keep investing to "connect to new power generation sources and support future load growth"
Primoris	$13.9 billion, a record, including $8.2 billion of MSA backlog	Utilities backlog of $7.67 billion; second-quarter revenue of $712.6 million	A second-quarter net loss of $24.2 million, with margins hit by cost overruns on six renewable energy projects

The segments aren't pure power-line numbers. Quanta's Electric segment also includes renewable energy and work for power generation and large load centers, and Primoris's Utilities segment includes gas and communications work. Centuri Holdings and Everus Construction Group, also publicly traded, do utility line work as well.

Independent contractors

Below the nationals are independent firms that fit most large-ticket programs. Each of these says on its own website that it builds transmission or distribution lines:

Company	Headquarters	Ownership
Pike Corporation	Charlotte, NC	TPG acquired a majority interest in late 2025
Michels Power	Neenah, WI	Part of Michels, which describes itself as family owned
Davis H. Elliot Co.	Lexington, KY	100% employee-owned; builds lines up to 500 kV
Aldridge Electric	Libertyville, IL	Family owned and privately held
Asplundh Infrastructure Group	Horsham, PA	Part of Asplundh, family-owned and operated since 1928

Below them are many smaller line contractors winning cooperative, municipal and federal power work. Two from federal award records: MOSARK LLC of Raton, New Mexico won a Western Area Power Administration contract worth up to $3.58 million in September 2025 for optical ground wire on a Wyoming transmission tap, and East Coast Powerline LLC of Lapeer, Michigan won a Southwestern Power Administration contract worth up to $12.93 million in January 2026 to rebuild part of a 161-kV line.

Subsidiaries

A lot of familiar names belong to a parent, which changes who you call and whose credit you're looking at:

• Quanta Services: Irby Construction, PAR Electrical Contractors, Wilson Construction, Potelco and M. J. Electric.
• MasTec: Henkels & McCoy and Intren.
• MYR Group: Sturgeon Electric.
• Centuri Holdings: Linetec Services and Riggs Distler.
• VINCI Energies: C.W. Wright Construction.

PAR Electrical says it runs more than 6,000 pieces of specialized tools and construction equipment and has access to more than 70,000 used by its sister Quanta companies. At that scale, fleet decisions run through the parent.

What equipment do line contractors buy, and what does it cost?

Contractors don't publish what they pay for trucks, but public utilities do. Cities and utility districts buying through cooperative purchasing contracts post prices in council and board records. These are turnkey prices (unit, body and chassis) from records dated May 2025 to January 2026. Some are final approvals; others are the quote or the not-to-exceed amount put before the board:

Unit	Buyer and date	Price
Altec DH50 50-ft digger derrick	City of Lompoc, CA, August 2025	$555,059 (not to exceed)
Altec DH50E digger derrick	City of Palo Alto, CA, September 2025	$535,375 (quote)
Altec D3060E digger derrick	City of Palo Alto, CA, September 2025	$486,601 (quote)
Altec DC47 47-ft digger derrick	Harriman Utility Board, TN, November 2025	$324,871
Altec TA60 60-ft aerial device	City of Lompoc, CA, August 2025	About $490,679 each (two for $981,358)
Service bucket truck with electric boom	Pasadena Water and Power, CA, November 2025	About $346,500 each (three for $1,039,500)
Altec AT37G 40-ft bucket truck	City of Lompoc, CA, August 2025	$325,326
Altec AT48M bucket truck	Groton Utilities, CT, January 2026	$260,241 (not to exceed)
Altec AT41M bucket truck on a Ford F600	City of Nixa, MO, May 2025	$247,031 (with a five-year extended warranty)
Underground wire pulling trailer	South Utah Valley Electric Service District, UT, August 2025	$235,000

Prices have climbed. Palo Alto's staff report puts each of its two digger derricks at $510,988, against $316,933 when the city first ordered them in 2021, partly because Peterbilt discontinued the original chassis. Altec's July 2025 quotes to Palo Alto allowed for delivery up to 24 months after the order.

Supply may be loosening. Terex said backlog in the segment that includes its utility trucks fell about 9% in 2025, driven by "a return to historical pre-covid ordering patterns with more available chassis," and its second-quarter 2026 report describes a production ramp-up in Utilities.

Not every unit gets bought. Custom Truck One Source, which rents and sells utility trucks, describes electric T&D contractors "who prefer to rent due to lower initial capital outlay, increased flexibility, improved asset utilization." United Rentals rents cable puller trailers and bull wheel tensioner trailers for utility power line projects. Heavy rental spend is worth asking about. A contractor renting to cover a multi-year MSA may be weighing a purchase or a lease. MYR Group says it spent most of its capital on specialized equipment partly "to reduce our reliance on lease arrangements and short-term equipment rentals."

How do the big contractors pay for their fleets?

With a mix of cash, finance leases and master lease agreements, and the filings put numbers on it.

MasTec is the clearest. Its second-quarter 2026 report says: "We estimate that we will spend approximately $290 million on capital expenditures... in 2026, and we expect to incur approximately $285 million of equipment purchases under finance leases and other financing arrangements." In other words, MasTec expects to finance almost as much equipment as it buys through capital spending.

Quanta estimates about $900 million of net capital expenditures in 2026. Its annual report says some fleet expansion orders "will be assigned to third-party leasing companies and made available to us under certain of our master equipment lease agreements."

Primoris says "the ownership or long-term leasing of equipment is generally preferable to renting," and expects $60 million to $80 million of equipment spending in the second half of 2026. MYR Group spent about $94.4 million on capital in 2025, most of it supporting its T&D business.

The independent firms in the table above buy the same trucks, on the same lead times, without a public company's balance sheet. That's where an independent large-ticket lender has room.

How should a lender underwrite a utility line contractor?

Start with how the contractor earns its money, then look at who pays it.

• MSA share: at Quanta, MSAs made up 33% of 12-month backlog and 41% of total backlog at June 30, 2026. MasTec got 44% of its 2025 revenue from master service and other service agreements, and Primoris got 32.0%. MSAs bring steady work, but they aren't locked-in revenue. Quanta notes its customers "are not contractually committed to specific volumes of services under our MSAs," and MYR Group says most contracts, MSAs included, "may be terminated by the customer on short notice, typically 30 to 90 days."
• Customer concentration: Quanta's ten largest customers were 30% of 2025 revenue, MasTec's 34%, MYR Group's 38.0% and Primoris's 53.1%, with one Primoris customer at about 12.1%. A regional contractor serving two or three utilities will be more concentrated than any of them. Ask for revenue by customer for three years and the renewal date of each MSA.
• Storm revenue: storm work pays well and doesn't repeat on a schedule. Primoris cited "a decrease in higher margin storm restoration work in 2026" in its second-quarter results, while MYR Group puts restoration at under 5% of revenue. Underwrite cash flow on a year without a major storm.
• Fixed-price risk: bid projects can go wrong. Primoris cut its full-year guidance in June 2026 and posted a $24.2 million second-quarter net loss, with margins hit by cost overruns on six renewable energy projects. Ask what share of backlog is fixed-price and how it's tracking.
• Equipment tied to one job: a contractor buying stringing equipment and cranes for one 765-kV line should be able to tell you where that equipment goes once the line is energized.

How do you find utility line contractors in public records?

Work from the money to the crew. Utility and grid operator records show where spending is going and which utility is building. Contract, license and safety records name the contractor.

Record	What it names	When it appears	Where to look
Transmission line applications and rate cases	The utility, route, voltage and cost	Months or years before construction	State utility commission dockets
Grid operator transmission plans	Each project, the utility assigned to build it, and the cost	At approval	MISO, PJM, SPP and ERCOT planning pages
Federal power agency contract awards	The contractor, amount and scope	At award	SAM.gov and USAspending (WAPA and Southwestern; BPA and TVA generally don't post there)
DOE loans and grant selections	The utility, the miles and the dollars	At selection or loan close	energy.gov
State electrical contractor licenses	The license holder, city and expiration	Ongoing	State licensing boards, such as Texas TDLR
OSHA inspections	The employer on site	After an inspection	OSHA establishment search and Labor Department releases

Working utility commission dockets: Texas PUC Docket 59029, the Oncor 765-kV application above, is a typical example. It names the utility, route options and cost, not the crew. The next step is finding who does that utility's line work: its MSA contractors, its contract announcements, and the firms already working in the area.

Working federal awards: WAPA and the Southwestern Power Administration post line construction awards on SAM.gov and USAspending with the contractor's name and the amount, like the MOSARK and East Coast Powerline awards above. Search for NAICS code 237130, power and communication line construction. Bonneville Power Administration buys under its own purchasing rules and doesn't generally publicize solicitations, so its work won't show up there.

Working license files: Texas publishes a daily file of every active electrical contractor license, about 14,000 rows as of October 6, 2026. Primoris T&D Services, Irby Construction, Pike Electric and Summit Line Construction all appear in it. One catch: Texas exempts work on transmission and distribution equipment under a utility's exclusive control from electrical licensing, so the file misses some line contractors.

Working OSHA records: OSHA's establishment search and Labor Department enforcement releases name the employer at an inspected site. That confirms who is working where, and it belongs in your credit file anyway.

One difference from data center work: FAA filings for transmission structures usually name the utility, not the crew. An FAA determination for a PG&E transmission tower covered "temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks," so the contractor only had to file separately for equipment taller than the structure. For public road and bridge work, where line contractors sometimes appear as subs, see our DOT contract awards guide.

What should you ask a utility line contractor?

The first call should find out how steady the revenue is and how the fleet is paid for. These questions usually open it up:

• How is revenue split: MSA work, bid projects and storm restoration, for each of the last three years.
• Who are the top customers: and when each MSA comes up for renewal.
• What's on order: units, expected delivery dates, and how each one is being paid for.
• What are you renting: monthly rental spend, and which units you'd rather own.
• Are you moving up in voltage: a crew moving from distribution to 345-kV or 765-kV transmission work usually needs heavier stringing and lifting equipment.
• Who owns the company: private equity, a parent company or an employee stock plan all change who guarantees and who approves.

What could slow the grid build-out?

Approved plans aren't finished lines. DOE's draft study says installations of lines above 69 kV dropped to about 3,600 circuit-miles in 2024, though it cautions that annual totals are lumpy because projects often enter service together.

Federal money can also be pulled back. DOE has said it is "restructuring, revising, or eliminating more than $83 billion" in loans and conditional commitments from the previous administration's portfolio, and in October 2025 it terminated Tri-State Generation and Transmission's $26.8 million Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnerships award. Treat a grant selection as a signal, not a funded project.

Execution risk is real, too, as Primoris's second quarter showed. And some trucks quoted in 2025 came with delivery windows of up to two years.

None of that erases the demand. It comes from utilities' own capital plans. It does mean a contractor's pipeline is only as good as the specific lines and MSAs in it, so ask which ones.

Frequently asked questions

What does a utility line contractor do?

A utility line contractor builds, rebuilds and maintains electric transmission lines, distribution lines and substations for utilities, cooperatives and municipal power systems. Most earn revenue from multi-year master service agreements, bid projects such as new lines, and storm restoration. Their fleets include bucket trucks, digger derricks, cranes, wire pullers and tensioners, and directional drills.

Who are the largest utility line contractors in the U.S.?

The largest publicly traded utility line contractors are Quanta Services, MasTec, MYR Group and Primoris. Quanta reported a record $53.4 billion total backlog at June 30, 2026, including $43.8 billion in its Electric segment. Large independent firms include Pike Corporation, Michels Power and Davis H. Elliot. Many familiar names, such as Irby Construction and Henkels & McCoy, are subsidiaries of the public companies.

How much does a digger derrick cost in 2026?

Public purchase records from 2025 and early 2026 put a new utility digger derrick at $324,871 to $555,059, including the chassis. The Harriman Utility Board in Tennessee was quoted $324,871 for an Altec DC47, and the City of Lompoc, California put an Altec DH50 before its council at up to $555,059. Palo Alto's estimate per unit rose from $316,933 in 2021 to $510,988 in 2025.

How much does a bucket truck cost?

New utility bucket trucks in 2025 and early 2026 public purchase records ranged from $247,031 for an Altec AT41M on a Ford F600, including an extended warranty (City of Nixa, Missouri), to about $490,679 each for two Altec TA60 60-ft aerial units (City of Lompoc, California). Pasadena Water and Power's November 2025 agenda report put three service bucket trucks with electric booms at $1,039,500, about $346,500 each.

How much are utilities spending on the grid in 2026?

The Edison Electric Institute projects investor-owned utilities will spend $238.8 billion on capital in 2026, up 17% from a record $204.1 billion in 2025, and nearly $1.4 trillion over five years. In EEI's 2025 projection, transmission was $37.6 billion and distribution $66.0 billion, about half of the total.

Do utility contractors buy, lease or rent equipment?

All three. MasTec expects about $285 million of equipment purchases under finance leases and other financing arrangements in 2026, alongside about $290 million of capital spending. Quanta assigns some fleet orders to third-party leasing companies under master equipment lease agreements. Custom Truck One Source describes T&D contractors who prefer to rent for lower upfront cost and more flexibility.

How do you find utility line contractors?

Start with where utilities are spending: state utility commission dockets, grid operator transmission plans and DOE loan announcements. Then find the contractors through federal power agency awards on SAM.gov and USAspending (NAICS 237130), state electrical contractor license files, OSHA inspection records and utility contract announcements. Check whether each firm is independent or a subsidiary before you call.

What is an MSA in utility construction?

A master service agreement is a multi-year contract under which a contractor handles a utility's ongoing maintenance, upgrades and smaller projects. MYR Group says its MSAs typically run one to four years, and that most of its contracts, MSAs included, can be terminated on 30 to 90 days' notice. MSAs made up 41% of Quanta's total backlog at June 30, 2026.

Methodology and update policy

Spending figures come from EEI, Census Bureau and EIA releases current as of October 6, 2026. Census's electric construction category mixes power generation with transmission and distribution, and EEI's transmission and distribution split is a 2025 projection, the latest it has published. Contractor figures come from each company's second-quarter 2026 earnings release and 10-Q and its 2025 annual report on SEC EDGAR. Quanta's Electric segment and Primoris's Utilities segment include work beyond power lines. Equipment prices come from public council and utility board records dated May 2025 to January 2026. Some are quotes or not-to-exceed amounts rather than final approvals. They reflect what public utilities were quoted or paid through cooperative purchasing contracts, chassis included, not what a contractor pays. Ownership details come from company websites and SEC subsidiary lists, checked October 6, 2026. We'll update the figures each quarter after the contractors report.
