Powell

We were honored to attend last week’s CEC Innovation Summit by Miami University CEC and proud to be recognized for our continued commitment to student engagement and professional development!

At Powell, we believe meaningful industry partnerships go beyond recruitment. From supporting experiential learning opportunities to collaborating on senior design projects and connecting with students early in their academic journeys, we are passionate about helping future professionals gain real-world experience and confidence as they prepare for their careers.

Thank you to everyone involved in making this event such a success! We are excited to continue building strong connections with students and supporting the next generation of innovators and leaders.

😁This year, Powell proudly launched its first-ever cycling team for the 2026 ACC Texas MS 150, a two-day, up to 96 mile ride from Houston to College Station dedicated to changing the lives of those affected by Multiple Sclerosis. With nearly 5,000 participants, this event stands as the largest Bike MS ride in the United States, and we were honored to be part of something so meaningful!

Our team rode with purpose, fueled by the stories of friends and family members impacted by MS and the shared commitment to support ongoing research that brings hope to those living with the disease. From miles of training to crossing the finish line, the experience was built on teamwork, perseverance, and a belief in making a difference beyond the workplace.

In our first year, Powell's seven riders united to raise over $9,000 while proudly donning the Powell "Ride. Power. Cure." jersey. This incredible achievement exceeded our expectations and supported a cause that aids patients, families, caregivers, and the medical community in the pursuit of a cure. At the end of day one, we set up a team tent at the Fayette County Fairgrounds in La Grange, TX, where volunteers, friends, and a special appearance by our CEO and his family rallied behind our cycling team. The sense of community both on and off the course made this endeavor even more meaningful as teammates, volunteers, and supporters came out in full force! 🚴‍♂️💪❤️

We are incredibly proud of our team and grateful to everyone who supported this effort. This is just the beginning too; Powell is already gearing up to ride again in 2027!

💚Powell sponsored the IEEE PES Switchgear Committee once again this year! This committee plays a vital role in advancing the practice of electrical engineering through the development of standards, recommended practices, and technical guidance, while also considering the broader impact on society, the environment, and the industry as a whole.

We’re also proud and excited to have many of our engineers actively participating in the committee’s work, contributing their expertise and engaging in the conversations that help shape the future of our field.
