JE Dunn Construction is proud to announce that it has been awarded the contract for the MEP upgrades necessary to double the electron beam energy of the Linear Particle Accelerator at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. This significant project, which began construction this month, will help advance research in X-ray science and related fields.

The project involves the installation of a vertical cryogenic transfer line and a removable roofing system, which will facilitate the installation and maintenance of the cryogenic distribution box. These upgrades are crucial for enhancing the capabilities of the Linear Particle Accelerator.

JE Dunn has carried out multiple projects on the SLAC campus since 2016, and this latest project marks a continuation of a nearly decade-long relationship. “Our long-standing relationship with SLAC has been instrumental in JE Dunn’s growth and success in Northern California,” said Kyle Chase, JE Dunn Project Director. “We are excited to contribute to this critical upgrade and look forward to continuing our work with SLAC to support groundbreaking research.”

Since establishing a physical presence and dedicated personnel in Northern California in 2022, JE Dunn has solidified its commitment to the region. The company’s expertise in the advanced facilities market has been a key factor in securing and successfully executing complex projects like the one at SLAC.

JE Dunn’s dedication to excellence and innovation in construction continues to drive its success and impact in the scientific community.
