Our History

In 1944, our founder Melvin Ulteig started lighting things up through his vision to bring electricity to the Upper Midwest. Today, over 80 years later, Ulteig continues to expand our vision, serving clients in North America, offering solutions across four Lifeline Sectors and through the dedicated work of our 1,300+ employee-owners. Whether 1944 or today, we have never lost sight of the deep commitment Mel had to clients, to collaboration and to solutions that make a difference.
