Who Are We

Our history is a timeline of persistence and innovation. An ongoing story of rising to the occasion to find new and better ways to power the world. We’re always seeking and discovering, imagining and building, learning and improving.

Time and again, we’ve taken on the world’s toughest industrial and commercial challenges. And whenever the challenge required something above and beyond, we broke through with something revolutionary. More powerful. Efficient. Smarter. Cleaner. Our pursuit to empower the world to be better than it was yesterday never ends.

Today, the world is on the doorstep of a new era. An era of never-before-seen challenges that will require first-of-its-kind solutions. We know the going will get tough, but as we’ve always done, we keep going. We keep innovating. We keep thinking ahead, but we take action today. For the ones we love. For the communities who need us most. For the world we share.
