Carla Piening, President & CFO

My entire career has been spent in the energy business, beginning with 35 years at Kentucky Utilities. I’ve raised two beautiful kids, have joyously graduated to grandma duties, and am excited to keep growing in good energy.

I have a deep understanding of how utilities and consumers purchase, move and expend energy. It is easy for me to translate the energy market into products customized to fit buyer profiles. One of my specialties is understanding operational challenges for industrial energy consumers.

My business values and mission are to use honesty, integrity and transparency to help you obtain natural gas and other energy products, including sustainable products for ESG clients.

Outside of work, I like to explore the states in my Airstream camper, travel abroad when possible, dig in the garden and spend time with my extraordinary family. It excites me to stay busy and driven with a purpose.


Brittany Davis, Vice President & CEO

Thank you for taking the time to visit BREA Energy’s website today and giving me the opportunity to introduce myself.

Before joining BREA Energy with Carla Piening, I worked as an independent industrial account manager and sustainability director in the natural gas industry for six years.

During that time, I served many clients in North Carolina including large to mid-size universities, hospitals, manufacturers, municipalities, and remote energy suppliers.

My expertise includes the development of natural gas procurement strategies, logistics, the implementation of backup fuel, energy efficiency consulting, sustainability, net-zero energy projects, and customized reporting.

I am passionate about tailoring energy solutions for my clients, always bearing in mind their budgetary requirements. My values are securely rooted in honesty, transparency, and reliability.

When I am not working with my clients, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, playing pickle ball, and gardening.
