What Huen Electric does

Huen Electric, Inc. is a commercial and industrial electrical construction and engineering firm founded in 1983 in Chicago and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MYR Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MYRG). The company runs three regional operations across the Chicago metropolitan area, New York State, and New Jersey, delivering licensed engineering, design-build, EPC, and Integrated Project Delivery services to enterprise general contractors, property developers, and facility owners. Its capabilities span high-voltage power distribution, lighting, fire alarm, low-voltage technology systems, BIM-based preconstruction, and in-house prefabrication of custom electrical assemblies.

Revenue mechanics are project-based: Huen competes on competitive bids, design-build proposals, and negotiated contracts, supplemented by recurring service & maintenance work and an emerging prefabricated product line (for example, plug-and-play electrical kits shipped across the U.S., Canada, and Panama). Notable engagements include Wrigley Field (multi-phase 2014–2019 broadcast and power systems), the One Chicago mixed-use tower (2.1 million sq ft), the Cook County Hospital historic conversion (AIA Illinois Honor Award), the New Orleans VA Hospital complex, the Argonne Theory & Science Building 80 MW supercomputer facility, and large utility-scale solar fields (Cinnaminson Landfill, 32,000+ panels; Earle Naval Base 28.6 MW; BASF Solar 70,200 modules). The customer base covers healthcare, federal/defense, higher education, sports and entertainment, manufacturing, food and beverage, gaming, retail, and clean energy.

The company's go-to-market is B2B enterprise field sales, leveraging IBEW union labor relationships and centralized MYR Group resources (fleet, engineering, capital). Operationally, Huen differentiates through strong safety performance (NECA 2025 Safety Excellence and Zero Injury awards), 41+ years of regional presence, multi-decade IBEW union access for skilled craft labor, and recognized technical capability in BIM, prefabrication, and Trimble GPS surveying. The clean energy and EV charging infrastructure practice has become an explicit growth vertical since the 2007 establishment of the New Jersey office.

Direct peers

• Sturgeon Electric: MYR Group subsidiary delivering commercial, industrial, and transmission electrical construction across the Western US. Closely analogous capability set within the same parent; competes with Huen indirectly for national-resource workloads.
• Rosendin Electric: Large union-affiliated electrical contractor delivering commercial, industrial, and renewable/solar EPC across multiple US regions. Closely comparable in scope (commercial/industrial/clean energy), IBEW labor model, and use of BIM/prefabrication.
• Faith Technologies: National electrical contractor and engineering firm focused on commercial/industrial construction, mission-critical, and prefab (Energen). Direct competitor on large commercial, healthcare, and manufacturing projects with strong prefabrication capabilities.
• Harlan Electric: Sister MYR Group subsidiary providing electrical construction including transmission, distribution, and renewable energy services. Sister relationship within the same parent makes it the most directly comparable peer in scope and resourcing.

Broad incumbents

• EMCOR Group: Publicly traded (NYSE: EME) parent of multiple large electrical and mechanical contractors. Competes directly via subsidiaries in commercial and industrial electrical construction, with much broader mechanical and facilities services breadth.
• IES Holdings: Public (NASDAQ: IESC) provider of electrical and mechanical contracting serving commercial, industrial, data center, and communications markets. Comparable scope and customer profile to Huen with similar design-build/PV capabilities.
• Quanta Services: Largest publicly traded infrastructure specialty contractor (NYSE: PWR). Overlaps with Huen on utility-scale solar EPC (e.g., fossil/solar transition work) but operates at vastly larger scale across transmission, distribution, and renewables.

Regional players

• Power Construction Company: Large Chicago-area general contractor with strong electrical, mechanical, and structural capabilities. Competes with Huen on commercial and healthcare projects in the Chicago region where Huen is headquartered.
• O'Connell Electric: Upstate New York electrical contractor serving commercial, industrial, utility, and renewable customers. Direct competitor to Huen New York for healthcare, manufacturing, and federal projects in NY State.
• Sachs Electric: St. Louis-based union electrical contractor serving industrial, commercial, and utility customers nationwide. Comparable union model, industrial scope, and EPC approach to Huen, though with limited geographic overlap.
