Although brokers are not required to file proof of their status with the Texas Secretary of State with the PUC (which would identify the company's Secretary of State filing number), there is only one entity registered with the Texas Secretary of State under the name RPower LLC whose entity status is "in existence" and whose name status is "in use".

According to Texas Secretary of State records, the managing director of RPower LLC is Jeff Starcher

According to LinkedIn postings, Tim Carter serves as Sr. Vice President of Market Research and Development at RPower

Carter previously served as Vice President, Demand Response at MP2 Energy, and previously served in a variety of roles at Constellation, including Director, Products & Services

Andrew Wong serves as SVP - EPC & Operations at RPower

A LinkedIn page for RPower indicates that it will offer services to insulate business customers' power supply from disruption while saving them money on their energy bills.

"RPower’s revolutionary business model of Resilience as a Service (RaaS) includes the design, development, installation, operation, and maintenance of on-site, behind-the-meter power generation sources," a LinkedIn page for RPower says

"These clean-burning, natural gas Generac generators -- dubbed RPower Resilient Generators (RGs) -- provide 100% of a customer’s electricity needs both in times of outages and peak pricing periods, with no upfront capital cost to the customer. Instead, the customer pays RPower a monthly RaaS fee as an operating cost, which is significantly offset by the energy savings the generators earn via monetization through various energy and capacity programs," a LinkedIn page for RPower says
