About PCI

Home

Home / About

A trusted partner for the long term ​​

PCI Energy Solutions, formerly Power Costs Inc., is a tight-knit team of more than 300 diligent product experts, engineers, business analysts and more. We implement software solutions in close partnership with worldwide power generation companies–our customers literally keep the lights on.

Our software helps companies who generate, distribute and trade power become more efficient, saving them hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars every year. 

PCI is a stable, privately held, fiscally conservative company that has grown organically without any bolt-on acquisitions. We’re based in Norman (Oklahoma) with offices in Mexico City (Mexico), Sydney (Australia), and Lima (Peru).

Our client partners

PCI clients come from every segment of the wholesale power supply spectrum and include some of the largest, integrated energy enterprises in the world.

We serve:

  • Investor Owned Utilities
  • Federal Power Marketing Administrations
  • Public Power Utilities
  • Generation & Transmission Cooperatives
  • Independent Power Producers
  • Energy Marketers & Traders

Our vision

PCI creates software solutions that are an integral part of our customer’s success, helping them achieve a more reliable, affordable, and cleaner energy future. 

By doing this, we believe we’ll become an iconic company in the energy industry.

Our mission

We empower energy companies to continuously optimize all aspects of energy production, trading, transportation, and consumption.

The full-spectrum solution

Over almost three decades, PCI has grown organically with the steady increase in demand by energy companies for faster, more powerful, multi-functional, enterprise-level software solutions.

The evolution in ISO/RTO markets, paired with the quickening pace of technological change, have driven the need for a migration toward a single, open, secure and often cloud hosted platform capable of automating and streamlining every aspect of front, mid, and back office operations. 

Our software will help you:

Optimize asset operations and front-to-back office functions

Identify and capitalize on every market opportunity

Enhance team communication and efficiency through streamlined workflows

Maximize all portfolio and staff capabilities

Integrate seamlessly with third party or legacy systems

Host data securely via the cloud or locally

Our values

After more than 30 years of building end-to-end enterprise software for an essential industry, we know a thing or two about reliability, and we’ve learned how to create long-term success for our customers. We only succeed when our customers succeed, which is why Customer Success is our core cultural value and central to our strategy.

Our philosophy and strategy center around one goal: helping our customers succeed. Whether that means late night troubleshooting or long-term support, we work to remove barriers that stand between our customers and their most successful, streamlined solutions. We achieve this through our supporting values: 

Customer Success

We are committed to and invested in collaborating with our customers. 

Continuous Improvement

We always adapt to meet the evolving needs of our customers. 

Enlightened Awareness

We practice self-awareness as the foundation of character. 

Connectedness

We believe success is a collective and collaborative endeavor.
