RESA Power, LLC, a leading entity in power systems electrical testing, transformer services, and life extension solutions for power distribution equipment, has announced its acquisition of PCA Valence Engineering Technologies Ltd.

PCA Valence, based in Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, has been a prominent full-service electrical testing business since 1995, offering acceptance, commissioning, and maintenance testing services throughout western Canada. The acquisition enhances RESA Power’s capabilities in the region, bolstering its team of skilled technicians to over 130.

“We are proud to welcome Ken, David, Mitch, and the rest of the PCA Valence team to RESA Power. This acquisition significantly strengthens RESA Power's electrical testing services presence in western Canada, adding an impressive roster of highly skilled technicians to our ranks. The PCA Valence team has decades of combined expertise and has earned an unparalleled reputation over the last 30 years for the quality and dependability of their services,” said Kevin Noonan, president of RESA Power's Canadian business.

Ken Gibbs, co-owner and president of PCA Valence, expressed enthusiasm about the merger: “We are excited to join RESA Power, which shares our ambition to safely provide best-in-class electrical testing services. RESA Power is growing rapidly in Canada and has an impressive record of supporting and investing in business partners. We are looking forward to accelerating our growth by having access to RESA's expanded portfolio of services and products that will benefit our customers.”

In alignment with its “One RESA” philosophy, RESA Power offers new team members immediate participation in the Employee Ownership Plan (EOP), provided they have reached, or will soon reach, a year of service with the newly acquired company within the current year. This initiative aims to foster collaboration and shared success across all divisions, empowering employees with a stake in the company’s long-term growth and success.

RESA Power anticipates that the acquisition will provide numerous opportunities to continue delivering exceptional service to its customers across Canada and the United States.
