Veteran Crane Construction recently completed a major support project involving the offloading of 594 Tesla Megapack battery storage units in Tonopah, Arizona. Each unit weighed in at 84,000 pounds, requiring heavy-duty equipment, detailed planning, and a committed team to keep the schedule on track.
