Nodal Power Systems was founded by experienced energy developers, operators, and technology leaders who have built, financed, and operated power generation projects across the western United States.
Nodal Power Systems develops, owns, and operates power generation projects in conjunction with related energy and data center infrastructure — currently developing landfill gas-to-energy, natural gas, and microgrid projects, with anticipated expansion into solar, battery storage, gas storage, and transmission.
Our experience spans the full project lifecycle: site origination, engineering, financing, construction, commissioning, and long-term operations. We were incorporated in Delaware in 2021, building on the foundational work of Teho Inc., co-founded in 2017 by Matthew Jones and Daniel Sechrest, which first commercialized natural gas microgrids and then expanded into landfill gas-to-energy.
Bryan Black has served as Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board of Directors of Nodal Power Systems since January 2022.
He manages origination, contracting and development efforts for the company. He brings almost two decades of experience across the energy sector, including senior roles in power trading, transmission, and an executive role in utility operations at organizations such as Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems, Tenaska Power Services, and Black Hills Power, where he managed billion-dollar portfolios of generation, transmission, and electricity sales. Bryan holds a Master of Management in Energy Trading and Finance from Tulane University and a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Brigham Young University. He served on the Board of the Western Power Trading Forum in 2021 and is recognized for his expertise in structuring energy projects, negotiating power purchase agreements, managing risk and resource planning.
