Flogas Britain is one of the largest distributors of off-grid energy in the UK and has 40 years of experience in providing solutions to both commercial and domestic customers, principally in the form of liquid gas.  The business has a longstanding record of organic growth driven by new installations, underpinned by a strong technical engineering expertise and capability, which, combined with several bolt-on acquisitions, it has increased its market share from 10% to over 30%.

 

The business is at the forefront of the energy transition, having developed a prominent track record in converting customers from higher-emission fuels to lower-carbon and cleaner solutions for the last decade. It is now well placed with a significant range of opportunities to develop and diversify into New Energies in the future, in line with our 2040 vision to provide 100% renewable solutions to customers.

 

Flogas has been highly acquisitive in executing this strategy, investing over £50 million in the recent acquisitions of Protech, DTGen, and Equity Energies. These acquisitions brought together a compelling proposition of products, technologies, and services to support customers in navigating their energy needs through the transition and executing their strategies regarding energy cost, security, and carbon emissions on their own pathway to net zero.

 

Flogas Britain has revenues of around £400 million and employs over 1,500 people across its multi-site operation across Britain, with its headquarters in Syston, Leicestershire.
