Meet RDE Power

RDEPower is an engineering firm founded on resilience, innovation, and extensive technical expertise. We specialize in providing sustainable energy and infrastructure solutions that enable businesses and communities to thrive in a changing world.

Meet the Team

At RDEPower, our name reflects our purpose: Resilient, Dynamic, Engineering Power. Guided by the mantra “Engineered for resilience, designed for tomorrow,” we are committed to creating smarter, more sustainable infrastructure that can withstand the test of time.

​

We specialize in providing consulting services, design evaluations, and power quality assistance for residential, commercial, and industrial clients. Our mission is simple: to help communities, contractors, and organizations build energy systems that are both resilient and adaptable.

 

Empowering Energy Independence

 

A key part of our vision is helping clients decentralize the flow of power and achieve energy independence. By equipping homes and facilities with distributed energy resources (DERs), we enable people to take control of how electricity is produced, stored, and consumed. Whether through solar integration, storage solutions, or grid optimization, we help our clients strengthen their energy resilience.

​

Supporting Utilities and Infrastructure

 

In addition to working with individual clients, RDEPower provides expertise to utilities and contractors by conducting distribution system studies and offering support on interconnection requirements. Our background in regulatory compliance and engineering design allows us to streamline the connection process, reducing delays and ensuring projects move forward efficiently.

​

Global Foundation and Future Growth

 

RDEPower was co-founded in the Americas and Africa, reflecting a global vision for resilient design and sustainable energy solutions. We are developing a dual-service model that includes both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) offerings, with plans to introduce online tools and downloadable engineering resources through a tailored e-commerce platform.

​

Professional Credentials

 

Our founders hold Professional Engineer (PE) licenses in Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, along with a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. These credentials demonstrate our ability to not only design technically sound systems but also deliver projects with structured, disciplined execution.
