All Energies Services Group (AES Group), a leading provider of sustainable energy solutions, is pleased to announce the acquisition of CWind Ltd, a market leader in offshore wind services, from private equity firm Inspirit Capital. This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in AES Group’s mission to expand its footprint in the renewable energy sector and reinforces its commitment to driving the global transition to clean energy.
Founded in 2010, CWind Ltd is renowned for delivering comprehensive support to the offshore wind industry, including crew transfer vessels, asset management, and turnkey engineering services. The company has established a robust reputation for innovation, safety, and operational excellence in the UK and across Europe.
The integration of CWind into the AES Group portfolio will enhance the group’s capabilities in offshore wind operations, strengthening its position as a trusted partner for the delivery of high-quality, sustainable energy services.
CEO of the AES Group commented:
“We are thrilled to welcome CWind Ltd to the AES Group family. This acquisition aligns perfectly with our vision to lead the renewable energy sector through innovation and strategic growth. CWind’s expertise and strong market presence will enable us to offer unparalleled solutions to our clients while accelerating the development of renewable infrastructure globally.”
Joseph Browse, Managing Director of CWind Ltd, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, saying:
“This is an exciting new chapter for CWind. Joining AES Group provides us with the resources and strategic support to scale our operations and further strengthen our service offerings to the offshore wind sector. I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Inspirit Capital for their unwavering support in reestablishing CWind as a standalone business. Their guidance and investment have been instrumental in positioning us for this next stage of growth.”
Inspirit Capital, the prior owner of CWind Ltd, also expressed confidence in the transaction.
Paul Youens, Investment Director of Inspirit Capital said:
“CWind has flourished under our ownership, and we are proud of the strides the company has made in supporting the offshore wind industry. Our primary objective was to successfully separate the business and establish it as a standalone entity, creating a strong foundation for future growth. With this achieved, we believe AES Group is ideally positioned to take CWind to new heights, ensuring it continues to play a vital role in the renewable energy transition.”
Adding to the remarks, Tony Colebrook of CSO Group, who facilitated the sale process, said:
“We were pleased to support the successful transition of CWind to AES Group. This transaction reflects the strength of CWind’s position in the offshore wind market and AES Group’s strategic commitment to renewable energy. The collaboration among all parties has been exemplary, ensuring a smooth and mutually beneficial outcome that sets the stage for future growth.”
This acquisition underscores AES Group’s commitment to scaling its operations and investing in best-in-class talent and technology to address the growing demand for renewable energy services worldwide.
