Our story

Who we are

Motive Power was founded in 2005 by Angel Lance with a straightforward goal: deliver solutions that people can actually use. What started as a small team focused on project management and consulting has grown into a firm of 70 Impactors working across utilities, capital infrastructure, clean energy, organizational consulting, data innovation, and AI integration.

The ambition has grown, but the approach hasn't changed: listen first, stay close to the work, and deliver outcomes that hold up long after the engagement ends.

20 years of hands-on work, with deep roots in utility relationships, capital programs, and sustainability.

70 Impactors spanning project management, consulting, data innovation, and clean energy.

Grown by following our clients' needs, not chasing trends.

We lead through sustainable business practices, delivering honest, accountable work that makes a positive impact on our clients, our communities, and the planet.

We earn trust by showing up, doing the work, and delivering outcomes.

For over two decades, we’ve partnered with utilities, developers, and technology companies across the country to deliver projects that matter.

What drives us every day

Our core values guide how we work, how we partner with clients, and how we show up as a team. They’re not words on a wall. They’re how we hire, how we deliver, and how we hold each other accountable.

01

Integrity

We believe in doing what’s right, not just what’s easy. We tell clients what we believe to be right, not what they want to hear. We build long-term relationships, not one-off projects. And we communicate transparently, every time.

02

Fearlessness

Meaningful progress requires courage. We ask the hard questions, deliver tough messages, and challenge the status quo. We don’t follow the norm for its own sake. We work to improve it.

03

Fun

We take our work seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Great work happens when people feel energized, connected, and genuine. Clients notice the difference, and it shows in the quality of what we deliver together.

04

Doer

We value action over talk. Anyone can identify a problem. Doers assess the situation, find a way forward, and take responsibility for making things better. That’s who we hire and how we work.

05

Curiosity

Better questions lead to better outcomes. Curiosity pushes us to challenge assumptions, seek deeper understanding, and approach every engagement with fresh thinking. It’s the mindset that turns good work into great work.

Impact Beyond Our Work

Our work doesn't stop at client delivery. The Gulch Environmental Foundation and NPUC are part of the Motive Power family of companies, each driving impact beyond the engagement.

Through the Gulch, we operate Rainmaker Farm, a regenerative agriculture project in Oklahoma focused on carbon sequestration and sustainable farming.

Through NPUC, we bring utility leaders together through research, benchmarking, and an annual forum during New York Climate Week.

These aren't side projects. They're central to who we are and how we show up in the world.
