The Energy Group
Listing Description
Our sustainable energy journey started in the critical power industry providing battery backup systems for critical equipment across all market sectors.
The demand for increased efficiency and energy reduction quickly became a regular conversation with our clients.
This provided an opportunity to utilise our electrical engineering background to review new technologies that can be implemented for carbon reduction and increased energy security and independence.
Strategic partnerships with leading manufacturing partners enable us to provide the latest technology whilst supporting the associated services with our trusted network of service partners across the UK.

What is a UPS used for?
A UPS (uninterruptible power supply) is primarily used to provide a source of back up power to a load when the input power source or main power fails. A UPS is typically used to protect critical hardware such as computers, data centres, telecommunication equipment or other electrical equipment where an unexpected power disruption could cause injuries, fatalities, serious business disruption or data loss.
Can a UPS be used for energy storage?
Yes, UPS systems can be used for energy storage. For this to happen, the batteries would need to be changed to lithium-ion batteries and the technology is different to a regular UPS. There are only a limited number of manufacturers that offer this solution.
How often do the batteries in a UPS need to be changed?
The batteries in a UPS are normally replaced every 3-4 years, this is dependent upon the battery type and the operating environment. We do offer options to include 5- or 10-year design life batteries and battery monitoring solutions to increase battery lifespan.
