PowerSecure will mark its 25th anniversary, celebrating a quarter-century of innovation in the energy sector and reaffirming its commitment to delivering resilient, reliable and forward-thinking energy solutions.
“This milestone presents an opportunity to express our deep appreciation to the customers and communities who have placed their trust in us,” said Chris Cummiskey, CEO of PowerSecure. “As the energy landscape undergoes rapid transformation, PowerSecure is well-positioned to continue leading — delivering resilient, sustainable solutions that meet today’s demands and shape tomorrow’s energy future.”
Founded in 2000, PowerSecure began with a focus on distributed energy systems and the integration of energy resources for both basic and advanced microgrid deployments. In 2001, the company acquired Industrial Automation, laying the foundation for its NexGear switchgear and integrated controls solutions. By 2005, PowerSecure launched PowerServices and Utility Engineering, forming its utility infrastructure division. Between 2007 and 2012, the company significantly expanded by developing PowerBlock, a modular and scalable distributed generation system designed to provide resilient power and economic value for our customers.
In 2016, PowerSecure became a wholly owned subsidiary of Southern Company, solidifying its position as a leading distributed energy innovation company. Over the past 25 years, PowerSecure has developed, designed, installed, managed and serviced more than 3 gigawatts of microgrid capacity, delivering critical resiliency for data centers, utilities, healthcare, retail, federal, commercial and industrial customers.
Over the past two decades, PowerSecure has deployed more than 2,500 microgrid systems with a 97.9% reliability rating, delivering resilient energy solutions that provide customers with options for returns on investment and meaningful carbon reduction. The company is also a proven provider of multi-measure energy efficiency projects with over $1 billion in engineered, installed and commissioned projects reducing energy and carbon footprint for our customers.
“This anniversary is a testament to the hard work, dedication and customer focused mindset that have defined PowerSecure since day one,” said Jim Smith, president of PowerSecure. “We’re proud of what the team has accomplished and energized by what lies ahead. The future of PowerSecure is filled with opportunity — and we’re ready to meet it with the same passion and purpose that brought us here.”
