The Mid-Coast Energy Systems Podcast

Stories, systems, and solutions from the folks who’ve seen it all. Tune in wherever you get your podcasts.
Looking for real stories from the trades, from a crew that’s been in the field for nearly 50 years? Each episode of the Mid-Coast Energy Systems Podcast goes beyond the blueprint. We talk shop about the jobs that pushed us, the systems we’ve built (and rebuilt), and the lessons learned by digging in and doing the work.
You’ll hear straight from the techs, leaders, and longtime partners who’ve helped build Mid-Coast Energy—one job, one fix, one solution at a time. This isn’t theory. It’s what you learn from years of crawling through basements, troubleshooting in zero-degree weather, and showing up when it matters.
If you work in the trades, are thinking about getting in, or just respect people who know their craft, this is the podcast for you.
