Join us in celebrating Drinking Water Week with a special spotlight on our one-year anniversary of service in Jackson, Mississippi 🥳 💧 Drinking Water Week is a perfect time to reflect on the value of clean, safe water, the importance of water infrastructure, and the critical role of water professionals – and #OurJacobs team’s operations, maintenance and engineering support for JXN Water’s O.B. Curtis and J.H. Fewell water treatment plants and groundwater system is a great example. 💧 Here’s a few extra reasons we’re proud of our role providing water service to the residents of Jackson: ✅ Since began plant operations the facilities have consistently met the system’s water demands. 🚰 There have been no interruptions in production that have impacted service to customers. 👏 There have been no safety incidents. This #DrinkingWaterWeek, take a moment to celebrate the Jackson team and so many others who work tirelessly to ensure drinking water quality, reliability and a commitment to safeguard public health and economic prosperity. #JXNWater #Infrastructure #ClimateResponse

“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.” - Dr Martin Luther King Jr. These are some of the words of wisdom that #OurJacobs Senior Vice President Katus Watson, PE, DBIA left the students with at the recent naming of the new Kaizen Collab at Florida A&M University School of Architecture + Engineering Technology (FAMU SAET). The Kaizen Collab will provide enhancements to learning facilities and resources for students. We partnered with FAMU SAET to provide new lab equipment and enhancements to the student digital fabrication lab. FAMU SAET students will also have the opportunity to gain real world experience through internships with our team. This partnership reflects our commitment to cultivating a culture of belonging where everyone can thrive. Our Global Action Plan for Advancing Justice and Equality, which builds on our existing global inclusion and diversity strategy, aims to transform communities and foster inclusivity, including initiatives that invest in young, underrepresented students and offering them a vision of a future filled with opportunities.

We’re supporting a first-of-its-kind underwater long-duration energy storage pilot, leveraging existing energy technology and marine engineering to lower the cost of energy storage. 🌊🔋 #OurJacobs has been selected by BaroMar, an energy storage innovation company, to develop preliminary design for the pilot located off the coast of Cyprus. The pilot aims to improve energy efficiency in a subsea compressed air storage facility and achieve relatively low installation costs and the lowest levelized cost of storage, with a goal round-trip efficiency of up to 70%.
