Rehlko, building on a 100-plus-year legacy of innovation, embarks on a new chapter—a rebranding that signals reinvention, resilience, and resolve. The transformation feels like a quiet, deliberate unveiling, much like the sun rising on a familiar landscape but casting a new, golden hue. It is not just about a name or a logo, it signals a fresh start while honoring the legacy that has brought Rehlko here.
Rehlko will remain an independent enterprise, a path it embarked on in May 2024 when Platinum Equity acquired it from Kohler Company, transforming Kohler Energy into a stand-alone business. Now, with Platinum Equity as the majority owner and Kohler Company as an investment partner, Rehlko steps confidently into its new chapter, empowered by its autonomy and strong alliances.
“This rebranding is more than just a clever name change. The letters that comprise the name Rehlko reflect our 100-plus years of rich heritage under the Kohler brand and represent a bold step forward in our journey to continue building and powering a sustainable energy future,” said Francis Perrin, Chief Brand and Sustainability Officer at Rehlko. The company will continue to provide control, resilience and innovation through a comprehensive range of energy solutions, including power generation, energy storage, and renewable energy technologies among others.
For years, AMPOWER and Rehlko have worked side by side, working together to craft solutions, push boundaries, and navigate the ever-changing tides of industry. AMPOWER’s trust in Rehlko’s commitment to excellence has never wavered, and as they enter this new chapter, we are grateful for the journey we have shared. The road before us is bright, and together, we look forward to many more years of innovation, growth, and success—side by side, as always.
