United Living Group has acquired a majority stake in Glenelly Infrastructure Solutions, bolstering its position in the UK\u2019s power infrastructure market.<\/p>\n

Glenelly, founded in 2016 and based in Hemel Hempstead, specialises in turnkey power distribution services.<\/p>\n

It operates two specialist training centres, including the UK\u2019s only facility accredited by UK Power Networks, and supports the roll-out of electric vehicle charging and heat pump installations.<\/p>\n

The deal is United Living\u2019s second power-sector acquisition this year, following its March purchase of Jones, a contractor focused on power distribution and street lighting.<\/p>\n

And the purchase of Glenelly is the latest in a string of takeovers by United Living, including family-run civils firm Peter Duffy Ltd last month<\/a> and engineering services firm AFECO in April last year.<\/p>\n

In 2024, it also acquired training specialist GTEC and PiLON, a social housing property services firm operating across London, the South East and Midlands.<\/p>\n

In its latest announcement this morning (6 June), United Living said its acquisition strategy drives long-term aims to build resilience and scale across key infrastructure markets.<\/p>\n

Group chairman and chief executive Neil Armstrong said the Glenelly deal extends the company\u2019s regional footprint to the North West, Yorkshire, London, the South East and Scotland.<\/p>\n

He added that the expanded network would help United Living to support the UK\u2019s transition to a low-carbon economy.<\/p>\n

Sean Conway, managing director of Glenelly, said the company was well-placed to scale up its operations following the takeover.<\/p>\n

United Living was advised by Cavu Corporate Finance, Addleshaw Goddard, UNW, Deloitte, Marsh and TSS Infrastructure Services.<\/p>\n

Glenelly\u2019s advisers were RSM UK and Kingsley Napley.<\/p>\n

Glenelly reported turnover of \u00a324.1m and pre-tax profit of \u00a33.2m in the year to 31 December 2023, according to its most recent accounts filed at Companies House. The company employed 109 staff during the period.<\/p>\n

United Living is ranked 38th<\/sup> place in the most recent CN100<\/a> table. Its\u00a0most recent accounts for the year to 31 March 2024 showed turnover of \u00a3627.2m and a pre-tax loss of \u00a32.4m.<\/p>\n
