Flogas bolsters clean energy proposition with Protech acquisition

As part of the energy transition to a lower carbon future, leading off-grid energy solutions provider Flogas Britain, part of DCC plc, has acquired Protech Group – a move that significantly strengthens its range of futureproof energy solutions and broadens its customer base.
Flogas adds a full suite of low carbon and renewable technologies to its portfolio, as well as a market-leading maintenance and service offering. Leading with energy; the company is fully focused on transitioning its customers to net zero.
Flogas now offers commercial and industrial customers a wide range of alternative heating and cooling solutions, including air-source and ground-source heat pumps, solar PV, and hybrid systems. It also provides a comprehensive range of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) solutions, maintenance services and water management. By adding these solutions, Flogas is now fully equipped to help businesses as they work to meet legally binding carbon reduction targets.
“Bringing Protech on board has taken our energy offering to the next level,” says Lee Gannon, Flogas MD. “This is a key strategic move, allowing us to develop and broaden our range of futureproof solutions. It also shows how serious we are about meeting our 2040 ambition to provide 100% renewable energy solutions for our customers. We now have the right energy proposition and expertise in place to help UK businesses reach pressing sustainability targets. And we’ll do it all – from bespoke design, through to installation, commissioning, and on-going support.”
Protech Director Ross Docherty adds; “Together with Flogas we’ll combine our expertise and help companies nationwide to map out their journey to reach net zero. For most, this is a transition, not an instant solution, and that’s where we come in – we’ll provide completely tailored, efficient energy solutions that help businesses reach their emissions targets at their own pace, and affordably.”
As Flogas shifts its customers towards a lower carbon future, it continues to provide leading liquid gas solutions. Liquid gas is the cleanest, most efficient conventional off-grid fuel available and customers switching from other fuels like oil, benefit from significant carbon savings and better air quality with fewer pollutant emissions.
