Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure | RESTRUCTURING In February 2025, the Company approved and initiated a restructuring program to streamline our organization given the significantly lower number of countries that we operate in. Additionally, we right-sized our development company to focus on executing on the backlog and pursuing larger but fewer projects to better serve our core customers. No restructuring charges were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2026. From inception, the cumulative amount of restructuring costs incurred to date as of June 30, 2026 was $54 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, pre-tax restructuring charges related to employee severance costs were $52 million, of which $43 million was classified within Cost of sales and $9 million was classified as General and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, $19 million was recognized at the Energy Infrastructure SBU, $17 million at the Renewables SBU, $5 million at the Utilities SBU, $1 million at the New Energy Technologies SBU, and $10 million at Corporate and Other.
