Cordia

I get asked frequently, do you work with the City of Minneapolis? Of course we do! The follow-up is always: Who do you work with? The answer is never one name. We work with many multiple departments in many capacities. Operating infrastructure in a modern city requires occasionally making requests of the City – where they are required to balance many different priorities. This past weekend was a prime example with the The Dayton's Project Chiller Plant replacement project. Multiple new Baltimore Aircoil Company cooling tower sections, each weighing approximately 15,000 pounds, were lifted 116 feet onto the building roof. This required a partial closure of Hennepin Ave & 7th St in downtown Minneapolis, two major arterial streets in downtown. With coordination between the city and surrounding neighbors we managed to complete this milestone safely and ahead of schedule. Now that the cooling towers have been flown into place, pipefitting and electrical work will proceed to integrate them into the plant for operations. None if this is possible without working with the City, who worked with us to achieve this milestone. Thanks to the excellent coordination and hard work by A&B Welding & Construction Inc, Pioneer Power Inc led by Randy Bagwill, and Cordia’s own Derek Bertelsen, the lift was completed safely in one day instead of the planned two days. Another milestone has been completed on this very complex project to enable us to deliver carbon free chilled water to our customers in downtown Minneapolis.

Bridgepoint Consulting is proud to announce that we have received the 'Applications & Data Analytics' award from Cordia, a leader in energy solutions, during their Annual IT Partner Recognition event. This achievement highlights our commitment to collaboration and customer success. A big thank you to our dedicated team for making this milestone possible. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Cordia and driving impactful solutions together. #BridgepointConsulting #DataAnalytics #Cordia #EnergyInnovation #Partners

Minneapolis just faced a serious cold snap, with several nights dipping well below zero—hitting a frigid -15°F on Tuesday morning! But even in the harshest conditions, Cordia customers stayed warm, thanks to the dedication of our Energy Center Minneapolis team. Through relentless cold and even a natural gas curtailment at the Main Plant, our skilled team ensured safe, reliable service for the community. Their expertise and commitment make all the difference when winter tests our limits.
