Hi, I'm Yotam

I'm building Palisades Power, a long-term home for generator service businesses.

Built alongside operators. Focused on the work.

I partner with generator service companies to help them grow, alongside the owners who built them.

Yotam, founder of Palisades Power Co

I started Palisades Power to build a great generator services business.

My name is Yotam Stanger. I've spent the last 15 years investing in and growing small service businesses. Over time, I realized I cared more about building and operating than investing from the outside. So I decided to go do it myself.

I chose the generator space because it's fragmented, essential, and full of great owners running great businesses. I see a real opportunity to build something big here, in partnership with the owners who already know the work inside and out.

I'm building Palisades Power to help realize this vision, partnering with great people and building something great together. What I'm looking for is simple: the chance to learn from people who do this work every day, and great local operators who share my passion and want to build something together.

My focus today is generator service, where the strongest businesses and best operators are. Over time, I'd like to grow into adjacent areas like monitoring and emergency response, anything that helps customers in the Northeast keep the lights on.

The Kind of Businesses I'm Looking For

  • Strong residential, commercial, or industrial generator service operations
  • Mission-critical service work where uptime matters: hospitals, data centers, multifamily, manufacturing, municipal
  • $3M or more in annual revenue
  • Strong local reputation and loyal customer base
  • Owners looking to grow, partner, or eventually step back
  • Businesses based in the Northeast U.S.

The Questions Owners Usually Ask Me

What do most small businesses struggle with?

Most of the owners I talk to are doing too much themselves. The business keeps growing, but the load just gets heavier. They're working harder every year with less time for the parts of the job they actually enjoy. That's usually where I come in.

What changes when we partner?

Your company keeps its name, its people, and its way of doing things. What changes is the weight you're carrying: less admin, more support, more resources to grow, and a path to step back over time if and when you want it.

What about my team? Can you actually help with hiring and retention?

Hiring and keeping good techs is the hardest part of running a generator service business, and almost every owner I talk to says the same. Building a real talent development system is something I'm passionate about: training, advancement paths, and meaningful economic upside. The goal is for techs to want to come to a Palisades partner shop, grow their careers there, and stay.

Are you looking to buy me out?

Think of it as an investment, not a buyout. I'm not coming in to replace you or run the business day to day. The ideal is that you stay on with a meaningful stake and keep leading. If you're eventually looking to step away, we can work with that too.

What can you actually do for my business?

It depends on what you want. If you want to grow, I can help you move faster with less personal risk: more techs, more trucks, new territories, better marketing. If you want some time back, I can take the admin burden off your plate so you can focus on the field and the customers.

Who's behind this? Is this a fund?

No. It's me, my own capital, and a small group of aligned partners and investors. No fund timer, no outside committee, no five-year clock. I'm building this to own and run for a long time.

What's the process if I'm interested in learning more?

It starts with a conversation, just getting to know each other. From there, we go deeper together, usually over a few weeks. If we find a mutual fit, Palisades will put together a formal offer.

If This Sounds Like You, Let's Talk

If you own a generator service business and want to talk about how I can help you grow it, I'd love to hear from you. No pressure, no pitch. Just a conversation.
