CPS, meanwhile, is also opening a new power generation hub in Cheektowaga, a suburb of Buffalo, that will cover western and central New York. Experienced powergen sales engineer, Joe Fantasia, is leading the scale up of this new hub. Meanwhile, CPS is leveraging resources out of Quakertown, PA and Pittsburgh, PA to service customers.
