Founder

The late Richard turned a dream into reality when he embarked on his journey as a man in a van back in 1982. Little did he know that his humble start-up would blossom into a multi-million-pound company – a testament to the adage “mighty oaks from little acorns grow.”

Today, Richard’s legacy stands tall, promising to provide reliable power to the nation for years to come.
