Brisbane-based AEC specialises in renewable energy projectsStockport-based OCU Group is now the majority owner of All Energy Contracting (AEC), an Australian contractor specialising in renewables and energy infrastructure services. Established in 2018 and headquartered in Brisbane, Australia, AEC delivers solar, wind, storage, civil, and power infrastructure services across Australia and New Zealand. OCU Group chief executive Michael Hughes said of the AEC acquisition: “This investment represents a measured first step in our international journey. A number of our energy transition clients operate internationally and have asked whether OCU can support them beyond the UK. We see strong cultural alignment and look forward to shared learning across both teams.”OCU is the second UK contractor to make an Australian acquisition this month.
