Serving onshore and offshore markets to maximise renewable energy generation
Established in 2021 in the UK, our team operates across the globe and has more than 100 years’ experience within the energy sector.
Having built a strong reputation across challenging environments, we are a preferred supplier for onshore and offshore high voltage services, trusted for our breadth of skills and competencies across the energy sector.
We specialise in a range of high voltage solutions including operations and maintenance, electrical safety management and coordination through our Control Centre, high and extra high voltage jointing, and 24/7 emergency support for fault and repairs.
Supporting all stages of the development lifecycle
Whether your infrastructure is in the initial construction phase or it is operational, we prioritise high quality products and solutions that last the duration of your asset’s lifespan, ultimately increasing the performance of your network for a more sustainable future.
While our core solutions focus on minimising the risk of unplanned downtime through effective routine maintenance, we also provide existing and non-clients with 24/7 emergency support to locate the cause of any asset failures that arise. By delivering quick response times to site, our team can locate the cause of the fault, provide a solution and minimise any disruption to your critical operations.
"Our primary ambition is to become a world-leading supplier of high voltage solutions within the energy sector, ensuring maximum generation from renewable energy projects and support in the global ambition of net zero.
"This is all possible because of our highly skilled teams, which are made up of experienced electrical engineers including senior authorised persons (SAPs), who are ready to respond to sites up to 400kV. With QHSE our top priority, we are also passionate about the high standards we train our personnel to, ensuring our engineers are authorised under the safe system of work standards and in accordance with each awarded framework."
