Our Mission: Creating an energy resilient world for a better future.
Rehlko is a global leader in energy resilience, delivering the solutions critical to sustain and improve life. By putting control over where energy is sourced, and where it goes, into more hands– homeowners, hospital administrators, business leaders – our solutions give people the resilience they need to keep building a brighter future, together.
For more than 100 years, our teams have excelled, reliably meeting today’s energy needs while planning for tomorrow’s. And as we look to the future, our priorities are global priorities: the stability that comes from steady energy sources and reliable back-ups. The power to be able to harness energy, and the freedom of not being dependent on an aging centralized grid. The confidence that clean energy solutions offer when it comes to a sustainable world, and the commitment to keep innovating towards greater impact.
With a diverse portfolio of businesses—including Engines, Power Systems, Home Energy, Kohler Uninterruptible Power, and Clarke Energy—Rehlko delivers the reliable energy solutions that communities and industries depend on. Together, these businesses empower people, support critical infrastructure, and help ensure energy is always within reach. By integrating innovation with purpose, we’re building a more dependable, sustainable energy future for everyone.
Powering progress since 1920
Powering progress since 1920
Rehlko's journey into the power industry began in the wake of World War I, driven by a bold vision and a spirit of innovation. Recognizing the growing need for electricity on farms, the company combined its mastery of cast iron with inventive thinking to introduce the groundbreaking Kohler Automatic Power & Light “power plant” in 1920. From energizing Admiral Byrd’s daring expedition to the South Pole, to lighting up Hollywood and supporting the monumental Hoover Dam, Rehlko has spent over a century pushing boundaries and powering progress.
