GK Engineers provided MEP design for the support buildings at the Ironwood Power Station in Malvern, Arkansas, working for the building contractor inside the plant’s EPC delivery. The scope covered a control and administration building with control room, DCS, electrical and telecom rooms, warehouse and shop, plus a water treatment building and a guard building. Plant process systems were by others.

Administration areas run on a packaged VAV unit with electric reheat. The control, DCS, electrical and telecom rooms get two 100 percent packaged units with interlocked ductwork for N+1 redundancy, as does the water treatment electrical room under positive pressure. Shop and water treatment areas are ventilated and heated with electric unit heaters.

GK delivered a schematic narrative for contractor pricing in January 2026, construction documents in April and the issued-for-construction set in June 2026.
