Inprova Energy powers up for growth

Warrington-based procurement outsourcing specialist Inprova Group has launched its new energy business Inprova Energy.

This follows last year’s acquisition of the established energyTEAM, ENER-G Procurement, and UES Energy businesses.

The newly branded business – Inprova Energy – is already one of the top ten business energy procurement and management consultancies in the UK and has a 40-year history.

Last year, the company managed almost 3,000 gas and electricity supply contracts worth nearly £1 billion. It now aims to build on its strong reputation as a trusted energy adviser to pursue further growth.

The 100-strong Inprova Energy team helps a wide variety of businesses, including Virgin Atlantic, Hotel du Vin, National Grid, Carlsberg and retail group White Stuff, to reduce energy costs and manage energy efficiency and compliance. The company’s specialist water division is also helping organisations to prepare for water market reform.

Paul Kennedy, Inprova Group Chief Executive, said: “Since acquiring three energy consultancy businesses in 2015, we have now completed their integration into Inprova Group and the launch of Inprova Energy completes this process. The size and scale of our energy business enables us to negotiate highly competitive contracts for customers by taking a larger spend to market, whilst ensuring we’re agile and flexible to always take care of each of our customer’s specific needs.”

“Inprova Energy has ambitious growth targets and further acquisitions will never be off the table. Our vision is to be the most trusted energy advisor in the UK and it is this that drives us to deliver the best customer experience for our clients. We are close to being one of the UK’s top five third party intermediaries, but our main focus is on delivering world-class operations and providing a truly trusted and outstanding service.”

During the last 12 months customers benefited from £5 million worth of savings through the expertise of Inprova Energy advisers, working with 21 different energy suppliers to negotiate flexible, fixed and collective contracts.

The company also has offices in Warwickshire, Sussex and Caerphilly, as well as a procurement operation in the US. It works with organisations of all sizes and across all sectors – both public and private – to provide smarter energy management. This includes business energy purchasing and analysis, energy and water auditing and management, carbon reduction and reporting and legislative compliance.

As members of the Energy Institute’s Register for Chartered Energy Managers and Register of Professional Energy Consultants, Inprova Energy’s chartered advisers are qualified ESOS Lead Assessors, and certified to deliver Carbon Trust Standard, ISO 50001 and carbon footprint measurement services.
