Our Story

ExecuPOWER’s uncompromising commitment to the safety of its
employees, contractors, customers, and community is pivotal to
our foundation

ExecuPOWER, LLC is led by successful women from the fields of business
and engineering.
Maria Larson and Andrea Turley, the CEO and COO of ExecuPOWER, saw a
need in the industry for quality technical services provided by an experienced
women-owned business. Changes taking place in the utility industry, such as
the aging workforce, increased outsourcing, and greater infrastructure
spending, created an opportunity for them to combine their talents to form a
firm whose mission is to deliver premium design and consulting services.

Maria’s business acumen comes from her experience
as an entrepreneur who developed a small
outsourcing and staffing business that she grew into
an international firm in a span of 20 years, ultimately
becoming the largest woman-owned diverse service
provider in that industry.

Andrea, a professional engineer with more than 29
years of experience in the water, electric, and gas
utility industries, brings an in-depth knowledge of the
technical and operational aspects of the business.

As a result, ExecuPOWER began operations in a well-capitalized position, with
knowledgeable back-office support and a technical staff with more than 130
years of combined experience in the utility industry.
