J Power's Chairman and Managing Director, Ashley Pigott, was recently awarded an OBE in the New Year’s Honours List for 2024.
He commented:
"I was surprised and honoured to receive this award. It is a real honour for us to gain recognition as a company for our export achievements, the Queen’s Award and now having sold our products in over one hundred countries. The diesel generator industry has an important part to play in energy transition. It is very much part of a solution and not part of problem. Incredible sums of money are still being invested in the new engine platforms and affordable new technology exists today which is dramatically reducing emissions. Battery hybrid solutions will become prevalent in the next few years which will provide energy security and significant reductions in emissions. This award only came due to the ongoing support of a great team of highly-qualified graduate engineers who have been with me for a long number of years."
Founded in 2003, AJ Power is based in a modern facility in Craigavon, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. The company specialises in the volume manufacture and design of diesel generating sets with a management team who have over 40 years’ experience in the industry.
