Resilient Energy & Infrastructure

What Resilient Energy & Infrastructure does

Resilient Energy & Infrastructure (REI) is a private, U.S.-domiciled energy integration company founded in 2017 that designs, engineers, builds, and commissions transportable hybrid microgrid systems for mission-critical, defense, emergency-response, and off-grid customers. Its product platform centers on two proprietary offerings: ExoSolar, a patented pre-wired accordion-style stainless steel solar racking system integrated with Tier 1 modules and engineered for rapid extraction, retraction, and re-loading into ISO containers; and the Rapid Deployment Hybrid MicroGrid (RDHM), a transportable microgrid system-of-systems packaged in ruggedized 10', 20', and 40' ISO containers that combines ExoSolar with inverters, power electronics, battery energy storage, and power distribution. A third product, the Energy Management Software Control and Integration Platform (EMSCIP), is in development as the software control layer for these systems, and an additional offering, ENERGYHUB for NatCat, bundles disaster-response tools and equipment with REI's deployable energy systems.

The company makes money primarily through hardware system sales (ExoSolar arrays and RDHM microgrids in multiple ISO container sizes), professional services (solutions engineering, custom design/build, system integration, field commissioning, and soldier/training support), and technology licensing of its patented ExoSolar and energy integration IP. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and engagement is quote-based, with customers directed to [email protected] for direct inquiry. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting government, military, and mission-critical infrastructure buyers — anchored by U.S. Army ASA(ALT) SBIR Phase I and Phase II programs and supplemented by conference-driven outreach (e.g., the Kentucky Association of Mitigation Managers conference for emergency management). Customer segments include mission-critical infrastructure (data centers, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, agribusiness), U.S. and allied government/defense, emergency management and disaster response, e-mobility and EV infrastructure, and Sub-Saharan Africa markets served through REIEA, the company's Nairobi-based wholly-owned regional entity established in 2022.

The company is small — six named leaders including co-founders Paul Maloney (CEO) and Jim Maguire, plus advisors — operates offices in Nashville (HQ), Thousand Palms, and Nairobi, and has demonstrated at least two commissioned RDHM deployments (a 25kW PV + 30kW inverter + 77kWh BESS system and a 30kW PV + 45kW inverter + 60kWh BESS system). REI is founder-financed with no disclosed external institutional funding rounds, and its competitive position rests on patented retractable racking technology, DoD-validated SBIR performance, and a 'no stranded asset' transportable architecture that addresses the disequilibrium between legacy centralized energy systems and modern resilient distributed systems.

Core offering

REI develops, designs, engineers, builds, and commissions transportable energy infrastructure systems, primarily its patented ExoSolar pre-wired accordion-style stainless steel solar racking with Tier 1 solar modules and its Rapid Deployment Hybrid MicroGrid (RDHM) system-of-systems in ruggedized 10', 20', and 40' ISO containers integrating solar, battery energy storage, high-quality inverters, and power distribution. RDHM systems are available in single-phase and three-phase, low-voltage and high-voltage configurations, with grid-attachable or off-grid capability, and generator-integrated or generator-ready options. The company integrates modern renewable energy with traditional energy assets and advanced energy management software to optimize reliability, system flexibility, and mission-critical energy security.

Product overview

Resilient Energy & Infrastructure (REI) is an advanced energy integration innovator offering a platform-plus-modules architecture centered on two core products: ExoSolar (patented accordion-style stainless steel solar racking with Tier 1 solar modules) and the Rapid Deployment Hybrid MicroGrid (RDHM) system (containerized microgrid in 10', 20', and 40' ISO formats integrating solar, storage, inverters, and power distribution). A third module, the Energy Management Software Control and Integration Platform (EMSCIP), is in development. These products work together to provide transportable, rapidly deployable energy solutions with no stranded asset risk, targeting mission-critical markets, rural electrification, disaster response, and e-mobility infrastructure.
