Cupertino Electric is a privately owned electrical engineering and construction company headquartered in San Jose, California. The company operates primarily along the West Coast of the United States, providing electrical installation, solar architecture, and data centers.
History
In 1954, founder Eugene Ravizza purchased Kucher Electric, an existing electrical contracting company, renaming it Cupertino Electric, Inc. After working on the first fabs for Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel, the business began to expand beyond Silicon Valley, first establishing itself in San Francisco through the acquisition of local firm Collins Electric in 1989, followed by the creation of an office in Phoenix, Arizona in 1996. In 2000, the company relocated its headquarters to San Jose, California and expanded into the data center business, building NAP of the Americas. It began constructing solar electric systems in 2007, and is the sixth largest solar contractor in North America by total megawatts installed as of 2015[update].[1][5]
Operations
Cupertino Electric is a union contractor with IBEW affiliation.[6] As of 2014[update], it employs roughly 2,190 workers.[5]
