Our history starts nearly a century ago when Jerome Goldstein founded the company in 1926. Goldstein had the ambitious goal of bringing electricity to rural areas that hadn't yet caught up with the new technology. Thus, the name Power Engineering. Not long after the founding of the company, the federal government established a new agency to distribute electric power to small towns and farmers.
