Reference Number: HIM163

Location: South of England

Turnover: £5.0m

Status: Offers Invited

Outstanding opportunity to acquire a uniquely positioned renewable energy provider specialising in the design, installation and maintenance of ground source heat pump systems.

Trading for just over 6 years, the company offers a compelling free of charge service to its clients by utilising a UK government funding scheme providing a guaranteed 20 year revenue stream.

The company already owns and operates 36 commercial heat pump installations, increasing to over 100 by 2021 based on projects already committed. Guaranteed revenues from these installations alone are £44.8m.

The company has established itself in a niche sector of the construction industry where there is a strong and increasing demand and is highly scalable through penetration into other areas of the construction sector.

The sale offers an outstanding acquisition opportunity for other renewable/green energy companies or general utilities engineering companies looking to diversify into this new and rapidly growing sector. We also anticipate significant interest from investment firms in the area of renewable energy.
