What CE Power does
CE Power, also doing business as CEIS | Power, is a privately held electrical power engineering, testing, and maintenance services firm founded in 2001 and headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. The company employs 501–1,000 people and delivers specialized infrastructure services to major utility companies, including electrical power engineering, testing, and maintenance across transmission and distribution systems. In late Q4 2025, the company was selected to provide construction support for a major Texas utility's distribution enhancement initiative—a multi-billion-dollar, multi-year program spanning more than three years, covering nearly 1,000 square miles of distribution infrastructure and designed to serve approximately 42 percent of Texas residents.
The company's core offering is construction execution services for transmission and distribution infrastructure programs, an extension of its traditional engineering, testing, and maintenance capabilities into capital project delivery for utilities. The service model addresses utility pain points including system resilience against unpredictable weather, consistent power delivery, and cost-effective infrastructure improvements over large geographic footprints. CE Power holds direct enterprise sales relationships with utility customers, winning engagements through competitive procurement processes, and earns revenue primarily through long-term professional services contracts tied to multi-year infrastructure programs.
Operationally, the company pursues inorganic growth as part of its expansion strategy, exemplified by its April 2017 acquisition of Utilities Plus Energy Services. Leadership comprises Paul Cody (CEO), Jim Cialdea (CTO), Brent McAlister (President), and Mose Ramieh (Director of Sales). CE Power's customer base is concentrated within the utility vertical, and its current strategic focus—evidenced by the Texas contract win—is on expanding from its Ohio base into larger-scale T&D construction execution across additional U.S. geographies.
