A Year After the Merger, Trip Harrison Shares His Thoughts

The ESSCO acquisition builds on the terrific integration we have achieved since the July 1st, 2020, merger of Curtis Engine & Equipment Co., Inc. (Curtis Engine) with Western Branch Diesel LLC’s Power Generation Division. As we celebrate our first anniversary, customers benefit from:

• An expanded geographic footprint. We are closer to you with new locations in Raleigh-Durham and Wilmington, NC, and Fredericksburg, VA.
• A new Energy Solutions business unit that is focused on implementing customized, complex power generation
• Enhanced capabilities. Our larger workforce is better able to deliver mission-critical backup power applications and natural gas combined heat and power (CHP) systems, as well as other alternative power generation technologies such as Microgrids, UPS systems, and battery storage systems.

The addition of ESSCO is a great fit for our strategy to better serve the power generation needs of commercial and government customers on the East Coast. Curtis Power Solutions is now positioned as one of the largest distributors of mtu products and services in North America, with an expanded territory including Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, along with portions of New York, New Jersey, Ohio, and Kentucky.
