HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At Reliant, we make sure every customer and every Watt counts, and we mean it. Case in point: our appointment of the new Vice President of Power Relations. Effective immediately, Justin James “J.J.” Watt will play this role, where he will tackle tough power issues, sack energy inefficiencies and pile up the wins for customers.
“It is quite an honor to be named the first ever VP of Power Relations here at Reliant. While it may come as a bit of a surprise, it’s just one of many that Reliant has in store for our fans and customers,” said Watt. “I look forward to working with my new teammates and helping Reliant and NRG reach new audiences with energy offerings. It’s all about unexpected solutions when you’re looking to be the best.”
“Today we make another bold move in ushering in the Era of Personal Power,” said Elizabeth Killinger, president of NRG Retail and Reliant. “Smart energy and home solutions, all the way from home security to new energy management tools and apps, are truly changing the way we make, manage and use power and live our lives. We’re thrilled to bring on an exceptional, powerful team player like J.J. to help Reliant and NRG continue doing more for our customers and leading the transformation of the energy industry. Adding this Watt to our power resources gives people one more reason to rely on Reliant and NRG for all of their energy and home service needs.”
As Watt’s first official act, the 6’5”, 289-pound defensive end will use all his energy to roll out the Reliant Texans Plan. To learn more about this home electricity plan, visit Reliant’s website.
