Living Powur’s Mission of Positive Change

We all seek to be part of something bigger than ourselves, to contribute to a sustainable future that lasts for generations. This desire pushes us beyond the ordinary into a realm filled with purpose, growth, and positive impact.

Meet Ubaldo Torres, a dedicated solar sales professional whose journey embodies this vision of positive change. His story isn’t just about personal success; it’s about transforming lives and contributing to a cleaner, more sustainable planet.

Ubaldo’s Journey with Powur: Finding Purpose Beyond Personal Goals

Ubaldo Torres, originally from the Dominican Republic, came to the United States searching for a better life and to connect with an organization that fostered innovative thinking. In 2020, he found that organization—Powur. More than just a job, Powur gave Ubaldo the chance to align his work with a mission much bigger than himself: helping communities transition to renewable energy.

In 2021, Ubaldo faced a personal challenge when his mother battled severe respiratory complications. He took a break from work to care for her in her final months, facing depression during this tough period. But he channeled his grief into a heartfelt promise—to honor her memory by achieving something meaningful. He aimed to win Powur’s inaugural Summer of Champions contest, a goal he successfully met. His victory led to an emotional journey to Mexico, where he helped build a house for a family in need, fulfilling his pledge to make a positive impact in his mother’s name.

Despite the hurdles, Ubaldo’s dedication didn’t waver. In 2022, he became Powur’s top personal sales consultant and secured fourth place in the Summer of Champions contest, further solidifying his role as a leader within the company. His accomplishments earned him another opportunity to participate in a transformative Impact Journey to Mexico.

Reflecting on his experience, Ubaldo describes it as a “beautiful journey,” though far from easy. His appointment to the Powur Leadership Advisory Council speaks volumes about his leadership and unwavering commitment to Powur’s mission.

Making a Difference: Ubaldo’s Impact in 2023

In 2023, Ubaldo took his mission of positive change to new heights. His focus extended beyond solar energy sales to raising awareness about the environmental and financial benefits of solar power, helping homeowners regain control over their energy needs.

Ubaldo’s desire to give back to his roots led him on a week-long medical mission to the Dominican Republic. His efforts helped provide essential medical care to nearly 6,000 people in underserved areas, showcasing his commitment to community service.

One of Ubaldo’s proudest moments came in 2023 when he won Powur’s Summer of Champions contest once again, earning a Hyundai Ioniq 6 electric car. In an inspiring act of generosity, Ubaldo chose to donate the car’s value to fund the purchase of a much-needed ambulance for his hometown. His reasoning? “My community needs an ambulance more than I need a new car.”

A Life Transformed: Solar Energy’s Personal and Professional Impact

Ubaldo’s association with Powur has been life-changing. Solar energy has not only reduced his household’s utility bills but also increased his home’s market value. More importantly, his work has given him a deep sense of purpose, knowing he’s making a lasting impact on his community and the environment.

Reflecting on his journey, Ubaldo says, “When you really care about people and focus on serving them, the money will come. Change your mindset if you need to, because people know when you care about them. There’s no secret—it’s about trust and care.”

Inspiring Others: The Power of Service and Solar Energy

For Ubaldo, becoming a solar owner marked a turning point. The cost savings from solar energy gave him the financial freedom to plan for retirement and invest in home improvements that had once seemed out of reach.

Joining Powur as a consultant amplified these benefits. Powur’s mission to drive solar adoption and its cutting-edge sales enablement platform gave Ubaldo the tools, training, and network to expand his reach and help even more people transition to renewable energy.

Today, Ubaldo is committed to inspiring others to embrace solar energy, emphasizing the financial and environmental benefits. He believes his story will motivate others to explore how they, too, can make a difference in their communities.

“The future is bright, and I’m going to make it even brighter,” he says with confidence.

A Beacon of Positive Change

Ubaldo’s journey serves as a powerful reminder of the impact that renewable energy and community service can have on both personal and global levels. His leadership, dedication, and selflessness have positioned him as a true ambassador for Powur’s mission of sustainability and positive change. Through his work, Ubaldo proves that when you align your personal goals with a greater purpose, the possibilities are endless.
