ABB TÜV Rheinland The divestment follows a strategic review of ABB’s portfolio

ABB is to divest its UK technical engineering consultancy business to TÜV Rheinland to create a provider that will support customers in energy transition and energy security.

ABB’s UK technical engineering consultancy, including a network of subcontractors and associates has around 160 people operating from two main sites in the northeast and the northwest of England. A specialist team of technical experts helps global energy customers improve process safety, equipment and asset integrity as well as technical design for new and existing industrial plants.

Troy Stewart, head of ABB Energy Industries UK, said: “This divestment follows a two-year strategic review of our portfolio and aims to accelerate the continued growth of the business. TÜV Rheinland is an excellent new home for the technical engineering consultancy business, where it can realize its exciting growth opportunity and create customer value.”

Gareth Book, managing director TÜV Rheinland UK, said: “ABB’s UK technical engineering consultancy will complement the existing risk, safety and integrity management services provided by TÜV Rheinland. Our aim is to build upon the long-standing customer relationships and trust that ABB and TÜV Rheinland have established in the UK over the last two decades.”
