Scottish energy firm buys Danish wind services provider

Danish wind services provider All NRG has been bought out by Scottish firm Swire Energy Services.

The Aberdeen-headquartered business will now become sole owner.

All NRG provides manpower services and project solutions including installation, commissioning and decommissioning support, blade repairs and high voltage services to the energy industry.

It works across wind and solar, and was established in 2014 when a Nordic private equity firm, Via Equity, brought together Apro Wind, VB Enterprise, Q-Star Energy and WTG Partners.

A UK presence was established in Grimsby in 2015, as it looked to build a team of 75 to 100, replicating services offered at three Danish bases.

Manfred Vonlanthen, chief executive of Swire Energy Services, said: “This acquisition, alongside the investment of BladeInsight in June of this year, positions Swire Energy Services firmly within the wind industry.

“With this competence, in combination with our global reach and our long-term experience operating safely in the offshore environment, we will be able to service OEMs, operators, and owners with a full spectrum of specialist services for wind projects globally.”

Swire launched in 1979, originally as an offshore container company. The Danish additions further its presence in the North Sea and Baltic region, with Norwegian, Belgian and Polish operations.
