Aiming to address specific sector and regional challenges for customers, Alan Dunne has been appointed to spearhead Aggreko’s growth strategy and innovation in the region.

Bringing 30 years of commercial experience to the role, Dunne first joined Aggreko in 2014 working in both operational and commercial leadership roles across Europe and North America. Having gained knowledge and experience across the business and through working closely with customers, he is set to develop strategic partnerships with customers in the region to provide suitable flexible energy solutions.

Alan Dunne said: “I am excited to bring my commercial experience to drive Aggreko’s growth strategy. Following conversations and input from customers, I am acutely aware of the challenges the energy transition presents and that each customer’s challenges and priorities require a different solution.

“However, with the significant investment in new technologies, services and skills, I can also see how our Greener Upgrades programme is making a difference to businesses who are balancing their commercial goals with net zero targets. With further investments planned, this is an exciting time for Aggreko and I am delighted to lead our continued innovation across sectors in the UK and Ireland.”

Providing flexible energy solutions and helping to prioritise commercial success while balancing costs, resilience and sustainability forms part of Aggreko’s sustainability framework Energising Change. By investing in new technologies and the team of experts who can implement them, the company is continuing its work in providing businesses with critical energy solutions, while at the same time supporting development of the infrastructure of the future.

Robert Wells, Europe president at Aggreko, added: “We are committed to supporting our customers make their energy transition a success. We also understand that there are different challenges, regulations and variables that can impact achieving this in different parts of the continent. By appointing Alan as a dedicated Managing Director for the UK and Ireland, we can ensure we are working closely with customers there to find the right solutions for their needs.”
