Managing Director Paul Holland explains the reasons behind the growth and strong start to the year, “We have already seen significant growth across our core market sectors of marine, off grid and automotive, which has come from our existing client base and also from exciting developments with our range of hybrid power units. We are already exporting to locations are far-reaching as the Ascension Islands, and we foresee considerable growth in standalone hybrid power systems worldwide over the next few years.”
Moving forward the business is looking to further expand both through organic growth and acquisition. The growth will allow each of the market sectors to enjoy enhanced efficiencies; a broader customer base and the financial capacity to expand their engineering capabilities and own product base further.
