Energy Assets thrives in Darwen

Five years on from the acrimonious fall-out at the top of Bglobal, the new owners of the metering division are thriving, expanding market share and creating jobs.

Energy Assets acquired Bglobal Metering in 2014, rebranding it two years later. It has since more than doubled annual I&C meter installations, added more than 100 employees to its original headcount of 50 at its Darwen operation, and significantly grown the number of meters under management.

The company recruited and trained a 60-strong team of meter installation engineers, increased the customer service, data and planning headcount in the Darwen office, and has grown its electricity meter operator and data collection appointments consistently year on year.
