Quanta Services Ranks #1 on EC&M’s 2020 Top 20 Electrical Contractor’s List

Every fall, the staff of EC&M unveils its highly anticipated Top 50 electrical contractors list, ranked specifically by electrical and datacom revenue.

For the past decade, Top 50 players have managed to top their previous year’s performances each year (as a collective group), typically with an increase of at least $1 billion per year. This year was no exception, with the Top 50 companies pulling in $33.1 billion in total electrical revenue in 2019, beating the $28.8 billion mark from 2018. Although most of the individual companies experienced year-over-year gains, the future is a little more uncertain than usual, considering the ongoing effects and possible long-term ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic on business. One sign of this uncertainty is the fact that 44% of respondents to our annual survey indicated they did not expect to reach their anticipated sales goal for 2020, which was a vast deviation from past years.

No. 1 — Quanta Services

2019 Electrical Revenue: $7.1 billion
