Local people. Experienced electricians. A business built for the long term.
Propower is a family-owned electrical business based in Mosgiel, proudly led by Grant and Kristy Compton.
With more than 45 years of combined experience, we provide electrical, heating and cooling, solar and energy solutions across residential, commercial and rural projects throughout Otago.
Since taking ownership of Propower, Grant and Kristy have grown the business around a simple philosophy - look after your people, do quality work and build relationships with your customers and community.
Developing the next generation of electricians has become an important part of the story. Through local Gateway programmes, apprenticeships, adult retraining and ongoing professional development, Propower has helped create pathways into the electrical industry while building an experienced and capable team of its own.
We are proud of our Taieri roots and the role Propower continues to play in the businesses, homes and communities we work within.
Propower Team
Our experienced team brings together electricians, apprentices, project management and administration, with capability across residential, commercial, rural and renewable energy projects.
We believe the strength of Propower comes from our people. our team works collaboratively across projects sharing knowledge and experience while maintaining a strong focus on safety, quality workmanship and practical solutions for our customers.
Across the team, our capabilities include solar generation work, photovoltiac solar design and installation, approved Mitsubishi Electric heatpump installation and work within school and aviation environments. This breadth of training allows us to bring the right people and skills together for each project.
Grant began his electrical career as an apprentice with Stephen White Electrical before becoming a partner in the business and later taking full ownership of Propower. A registered electrician with extensive experience across the industry, Grant remains actively involved in projects, technical leadership and the development of our team.
Kristy leads much of Propower's business operations, including people and culture, health and safety, compliance, systems, training and workforce development. Together Grant and Kristy have built Propower around developing good people, creating opportunities and maintaining a workplace where the team can grow.
