About Joel Robinson

I am the Founder and President of repower, a Montana-based clean energy company helping homes, farms, and businesses generate, store, and manage their own electricity.My work focuses on building practical energy systems that combine solar power, battery storage, electrification, and intelligent controls to create more reliable and resilient power for our communities.Over the past several years I have worked directly in the field designing and deploying renewable energy systems including:• Solar PV systems• Battery storage and backup power• Microgrid design and distributed energy systems• EV charging infrastructure• Heat pumps and building electrification• Smart electrical panels and energy monitoringBefore launching repower, I operated under a national solar franchise. In 2026 we transitioned to build repower as an independent company, allowing us to innovate faster and focus on long-term energy solutions for Montana and the greater Northwest.I believe the future of energy will be distributed, intelligent, and locally controlled. Solar generation combined with battery storage and smart energy management will fundamentally reshape how electricity is produced and used.At repower, our mission is simple:Help people take control of their energy.We do this by designing systems that:• Reduce long-term energy costs• Provide backup power during outages• Electrify homes and businesses• Improve energy independence• Strengthen local energy infrastructureBased in Montana, our team works with homeowners, farms, businesses, and institutions to deploy modern energy systems that are reliable, practical, and built to last.
