The Milwaukee business community has a history of innovative entrepreneurship—companies determined to be industry disruptors. Current Electric has embraced being a renegade since its inception.
“We started Current Electric in 1983 to help our neighbors with their electrical needs by providing quality service for a fair price,” explains Chuck Smith, president of Current Electric. “I also dreamed we would be an educational foundation within the electrical industry.”
As small business owners, like Smith, strategize to stay at the top of their industries, they invest in discovering industry best practices and consistent team-building exercises.
“To stay at the forefront, we deeply invest in team training to improve our customer experience,” says Smith. “When discussing the next phase of electrical we speak highly about solar, LED lighting, and backup electrical systems keeping our team members and community energized and illuminated.”

As he strategizes ways to keep his small business at the forefront of the electrical industry, he encourages small business owners to evaluate how solar energy can help them excel in their respective industries and support their future growth and success.
