Portfolio Expansion Brings Anticipated Job Creation

A leading Aberdeen-based electrical and subsea supplier has continued its landmark 40th anniversary celebrations by creating a new division which is likely to lead to the creation of new jobs in the coming months.

AEL (Aberdeen) Ltd’s new arm will focus on providing energy audits in the north of Scotland, opening up the possibility for clients to save up to one fifth on their energy costs. As an ABB low voltage value provider with access to motion control products, AEL is now able to offer a process which is unique in its scalability for industrial and hazardous settings, and can be applied to provide flexibility whilst optimising process and control measures.

It is anticipated that the new division will not only augment options for existing AEL customers but also open up new relationships from Dundee to Shetland.

As demand takes hold, it is expected that there will be a need for additional staff to complete audits and carry out recommendations, and AEL has already launched a recruitment drive in preparation.

Commenting on the news, AEL operations director Mark Goonan said: “This additional service is a natural extension to our portfolio and expertise in all things low voltage, and we are excited to explore the possibilities this will open up for us and our customers.

“With soaring energy costs uppermost in the minds of many, we anticipate strong demand for this new branch of our business and we look forward to working with customers old and new to find efficiencies in their energy bills.”

Founded in 1981, AEL is a family-owned international brand providing first-class electrical and subsea products and services to the onshore, offshore, renewable, petrochemical, marine and industrial sectors.

From its global headquarters in Aberdeen’s Bridge of Don and regional hubs in Houston, Baku and Mexico, the company offers a broad range of electrical products and services which are delivered by an experienced and committed team.
