SPG – UK, established in 2012 by three local businessmen with over 60 years’ combined experience in power generators, has chosen Ransom Wood Business Park in Mansfield as its national base for operations as it seeks to establish and grow in the multi-million emergency power market.
“The UK power generation industry is facing increasing pressures to deliver “green” energy, resulting in pressure to close traditional coal-fired power stations and out-of-date nuclear facilities” says SPG’s Managing Director, Bobby Palmer. “As a result, the system is operating ever-closer to capacity and an increasing number of businesses and facilities like hospitals, which depend on a constant and reliable source of electricity, are seeking the reassurance which onsite power generators provide. We intend to meet this need through a complete “turn-key” service for our customers.”
SPG – UK chose Ransom Wood for its attractive working environment and because Mansfield seemed the logical choice for its directors, who all hail from Nottinghamshire or Derbyshire. “We know the area through working here in the past and are confident that we can recruit local people with the skills and experience we need as we grow in the future” said Contracts Director, John Spencer. “The country-wide access provided by the M1 locally is also a boost to us, as we operate all over the country”.
James Cannon, Managing Director of Ransom Wood Estates said “we’re delighted to welcome SPG – UK to our site here in Mansfield. With their clear ambitions for growth, SPG needed a flexible solution to their accommodation requirements, which we were happy to provide”.
