Member Spotlight: SENER

Perspective matters. And though 10 years may not seem like a long time to some, to the engineering and technology group, SENER, it has been a dynamic beginning of its meaningful entry into the US market and an extensive period for growth and expansion. Since opening its California-based office in 2008, SENER continues to advance its global innovation and expertise in the US as a leader in revolutionizing infrastructure delivery in the US with projects in infrastructure and transport, renewables, power, oil and gas, marine, and aerospace.

Infrastructure and transport projects include the Gruen/Grimshaw Master Plan high-speed design for the Los Angeles Union Station, and a partnership with ACS to develop the first P3 transit project in Los Angeles—the re-opening of the landmark Angels Flight funicular railway in Los Angeles. For the California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA), SENER has overseen the preliminary
engineering of the rail segment between Palmdale and Burbank, a section that crosses the San Gabriel Mountains.

In aerospace, the Nevada-based Sierra Nevada Corporation chose the International Berthing and Docking Mechanism, a critical piece of aerospace technology that SENER developed with a European Space Agency consortium for use with the Dream Chaser spacecraft and its International Space Station docking system. Watch SENER CEO Mercedes Sierra talk about “The Way to See the Future.”  Look what can happen in just ten short years — congratulations to SENER on its great achievements!
