CES Power has completed the acquisition of three Ireland-based businesses – GH Energy Rental Ltd, Event Power and Purecore. The acquisition supports CES Power’s global growth strategy, targeting sustained year-on-year revenue growth.
Together, the three new businesses will significantly enhance CES Power’s existing fleet of generators, lighting towers, transformers, distribution boards, cabling infrastructure and specialist power management systems, making it the largest power fleet in the UK and Ireland. This expanded capability will increase capacity to deliver complex, multi-site projects across both the events and industrial sectors.
All three business’ colleagues will join CES Power as part of the acquisition, increasing the headcount in the UK and Europe, further strengthening the business’ in-market expertise and operational delivery capability. This expanded presence in the UK and Ireland will also enhance its ability to deliver consistent, scalable solutions for international clients operating across multiple territories.
As specialists in temporary power generation and distribution for live events, broadcast and industrial projects, GH Energy Rental Ltd, Event Power and Purecore will bring decades of deep sector expertise in delivering critical engineering support, infrastructure and specialist power solutions which will further cement CES Power’s integrated service offering to customers.
Ailsa Webb, division president UK/Europe of CES Power, said: “We have ambitious plans to continue growing our presence across the UK and Europe, and these acquisitions are an important step in scaling our capability in Ireland GH Energy Rental Ltd, Event Power and Purecore have built strong reputations and long-standing customer relationships. Their technical expertise, high-quality equipment and experienced teams align closely with our strategy to deliver reliable, engineering-led temporary power solutions at scale.”
“The decision for the founders to remain in leadership roles ensures continuity for customers while enabling us to integrate the operations efficiently, expand capacity and unlock further growth,” Webb added.
The acquisitions add two Dublin-based operations and one in Portlaoise to CES Power’s growing European network, extending geographic coverage and on-the-ground support across Ireland.
The latest expansion builds on CES Power’s acquisition of four European based businesses- Euro Touring Power, Fourth Generation, ABird and Apex Power Solutions – further cementing its growth in the UK, Republic of Ireland and Europe.
Jordan Reber, CEO of CES Power said: “These acquisitions strengthen our presence in Ireland, enhance our ability to support customers working across borders and reinforce our position as a leading global temporary power partner. The expertise these teams bring to our business will further support Ailsa and her team in meeting the growing demand and opportunity across Ireland. Our global team is looking forward to welcoming these new colleagues to CES Power and continuing to work collaboratively to drive our business forward.”
