Middle Tennessee Electric (MTE), is one of the largest electric cooperatives in Tennessee, serving 750,000 members through 19,000 miles of transmission lines across eight counties. MTE’s mission to provide reliable and efficient service led them to seek an upgrade for their outdated 20-year-old control room. The goal was to implement the latest technology and enhance operational efficiency for their team. With a constrained budget and a short four-month timeline for the project, MTE turned to Evans for a solution.
The Evans process includes a few different steps, and we handle everything from start to finish.
“The sales manager let me choose what we needed. He didn’t design something and tell us ‘this is what you need,’ he listened to what I told him our requirements were. When I asked three other console providers for designs, they didn’t meet my expectations. Evans did.”

The sales manager at Evans worked closely with MTE, listening to their needs and preferences. This collaborative approach allowed the client to choose the features that best suited their requirements, resulting in a customized solution that provided the latest control room technology which enhanced operational efficiency for their team.
The adaptable control room design, combined with Evans’ comprehensive portfolio of clients, quickly gained the approval of the executive team at MTE. The CEO, upon seeing the design alongside Evans’ client list, was immediately impressed and approved the project.
