History
PowerGen's company account traces its origins to 2016, when generator-industry veteran Victor Poley founded the business. The company says it was built on the foundations of businesses with decades of generator-industry experience and set out to serve the critical-infrastructure power needs of hospitals, data centers, manufacturing facilities, and government agencies. Its initial and continuing area of focus is commercial and industrial emergency standby power in California and Nevada. PowerGen describes its offering as a full-service model rather than generator sales alone. Its services include helping customers choose an appropriate generator, installation, planned maintenance, emergency repair, load testing, remote monitoring, and compliance support. The company reports servicing systems from 10 kW standby units to 3 MW emergency power plants. It also provides rental generators, marketed for emergency response, planned outages, and short-term temporary power. The service pages identify NFPA 110 compliance support as part of its work for healthcare, data-center, and other critical facilities. The company says its technicians are factory-trained and certified on Caterpillar, Kohler, and Cummins platforms. Its current website describes service coverage across California and Nevada, including the Greater Bay Area, Wine Country, the Central Coast, Greater Sacramento, and Northern Nevada. The About page says PowerGen operates from five offices across the two states and provides 24-hour emergency response. Its offerings page also describes Pulse, a remote-monitoring platform that connects with existing original-equipment-manufacturer and third-party systems. A later organizational development was the formation of OnPoint-PowerGen. PowerGen's About page says the company is now part of OnPoint-PowerGen, while the leadership page says Nick Haschka founded OnPoint-PowerGen in 2023. That page identifies Haschka as chief executive officer and Dillan Ferguson as lead engineer. Separately, the supplied Wikidata entry describes PowerGen Inc. as a subsidiary of OnPoint Generators. Since the available evidence does not explain how OnPoint-PowerGen and OnPoint Generators relate, this dossier records both descriptions without treating them as interchangeable. PowerGen's current public-facing service range combines generator sales and installation with ongoing operational support: maintenance programs, monitoring, testing, compliance work, mobile repair, and rental equipment. The supplied sources do not provide further dated corporate milestones, acquisition details, or financial information.
