Company · 40 Years of Load Bank Expertise
Forty years
under load.
Ashford Energy UK is a specialist load-bank manufacturer. For four decades our single discipline has been proving power — designing and building the resistive, reactive, DC and liquid-cooled systems that critical industries rely on, and supporting them through commissioning anywhere in the world.
Who we are
One discipline.
Done properly.
We do one thing: load banks. That focus is deliberate. It means every unit we ship is the product of decades of accumulated engineering — not a sideline to some other business — and it is why our customers trust us with the final, decisive test before a system goes live.
From a single portable test set to a containerised megawatt array, every Ashford load bank is built to one global engineering standard on a common control architecture and a single quality system, then backed by engineers who will travel to site to see it commissioned.
What we do
End to end, under one roof.
