So, have you heard the one about....

Current Projects

RJK Power Systems, in conjunction with RJK Mobile Mechanics, is currently undertaking the task of disassembling a powerhouse in British Columbia, Canada. This project requires the diversified abilities of the RJK Group of Companies. The B.C. project employs more than 30 tradespeople, including persons from the Heavy Duty Mechanical, Welding, Electrical, Trucking, Crane Operating, Parts Trades. As well, the project employs labourers from across Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia.

Phase One of the project--disassembling the station at Fort Nelson, BC and preparing it for transport--is officially complete. Now, the RJK Group can focus on Phase Two. Click on the link to see images from Phase One of the project.

Phase Two--relocating the station to Elmworth, AB and re-assembling it--is now well under way. Now that RJK's focus is solely on the reconstruction of the station, we'll have more frequent progress reports from the site. Click on the link to see images from Phase Two.

This is quick video from the site, from the crew to their favorite person. Hi, Mom! :)
