While the COVID-19 pandemic slowed life and business across the world in 2020, it didn’t hinder the construction industry’s creativity, innovation and teamwork, as evidenced by the nearly 100 entries for ENR’s annual Regional Best Projects competition in California.
This year’s entries showcase a wide range of project types. From Project of the Year winners—the CalPlant Rice Straw-Based MDF Manufacturing Plant and the AES Alamitos Battery Energy Storage System—to the many winners in individual categories, the competition features several first-of-a-kind projects.
