Excelling in EPC Services for the Generis Technology: Energy Industry Developing Leading Solutions for the Utilities Market
Generis Technology: Developing Leading Solutions for the Utilities Market
Mar19300
Established in 2013, GF Genovate are one of the UK’s most experienced gas to power energy developers specialising in the development of flexible embedded and standby power solutions. Earlier in the year, the company was spotlighted in the 2019 SME 100 programme as the ‘Recognised Experts in Gas & Diesel Generator Installation Services’ in West Yorkshire. We spoke with the firm’s Managing Director and Owner, Alan Dempsey, who offered more insight into their solutions and services. The energy sector is a notoriously difficult market to disrupt, ingrained as it is into large-scale infrastructure, and dominated by a select few industry goliaths. Yet, despite this difficulty, GF Genovate has swiftly made a lasting mark on the energy landscape, becoming – in just six short years- a powerful force for innovation and development in an environment that seems slow and resistant to change in comparison. Tellingly, as Alan explains, Genovate’s company ethos is based around “meeting the needs of our customers”. “We evaluate each project and take a pragmatic engineering approach that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations. Our team are constantly developing and reviewing engineering estimates of energy savings for energy efficiency, renewable energy and demand response measures and programs. We continue to develop and acquire new projects in the UK and have a long-term commitment to the ongoing deployment of low carbon gas to power technologies in the UK.” “Moreover, as new energy sources and technologies emerge, and power becomes decentralised, we’re helping organisations around the UK use the freedom this creates to achieve their objectives. We provide insights, expertise and an effective solution to enable our clients to take control of their energy sources and gain competitive advantage – innovating performance, resilience and UK growth.” In this GF Genovate act like an accelerator, driving the entire industry forwards into the future as Alan discusses in more detail. “In a changing energy

Established in 1995, Generis Technology Limited has provided cost-effective solutions for Britain’s utilities market. On the back of their recognition in the SME Top 100 programme, we spoke with Dave Rice, Sales and Marketing Support Manager for Generis, to find out how they have become one of the leading companies in this highly competitive sphere.
Alan continues, detailing where Genovate has truly distinguished itself from any peers and competitors. “One of the areas we’ve specialised in is generator installation.

The latter is of particular note, detailing the company’s significant investment in their internal talent, attributing roughly 2.5 times more than the average UK SME training budget per head. This commitment certainly shows, evident in the expertise of their team and in the standard of their customer service. Then again, this is just par for the course for GF Genovate as they continue to offer their services to an ever-burgeoning client base. As such, the future of the company can be defined by a ‘continuation’ as they look to reinforce their enviable position in the market.

“One of Elmtronics’s long-standing clients, North Somerset Council, has converted 48% of its light van and car fleet to electric vehicles, totalling 34 electric vehicles which is estimated to be saving over 5000kg of CO2 per month. This important relationship and mutual respect have led to further opportunities for Elmtronics and the wider community.”
Driving the Future Growth of the EV Industry Elmtronics is the UK’s largest independent supplier and installer of electric car charging points. Earlier this year, Elmtronics was recognised as ‘2019’s Recognised Specialists in Electric Vehicle Charging Stations’ in the SME 100 programme. We spoke with the company’s Victoria Lewis to find out more about their sector-leading reputation in this emerging industry. The electric vehicle industry has swiftly become a goliath on the business landscape as more and more companies look to capitalise on the wealth of opportunities this growing sector represents. Elmtronics has established itself much faster than most, becoming, by all regards, the market frontrunner, as Victoria explains in more detail. “Elmtronics provides an end-to-end offering to its customers, including selection and installation of the charging equipment, on-going maintenance, and software solutions to manage the back office and customer interface.
