Keltbray announces sale of Infrastructure Services business

Keltbray Group expanded into infrastructure services in 2009 by acquiring Gamble Rail, followed by Aspire Rail in 2010, and then establishing KISL in 2018 as their energy networks business. In 2021 and 2022, KISL made further acquisitions in the high voltage and renewable energy markets.

KISL provides energy networks and transport services across the UK. 

EMK Capital will provide financial support and strategic guidance to aid KISL’s management team in accelerating the company’s growth plans. The company says its long-term trends include increased investment in the UK’s critical infrastructure assets and the move toward a low-carbon, digital-enabled, and energy-secure future.

Darren James, Chief Executive Officer of KISL, said, “KISL is well-placed to realise our potential in the energy transition and decarbonised transport market with our strong market position and sustainable business approach.

EMK Capital’s deep understanding of the infrastructure and engineering services sector, coupled with its expertise in delivering transformational growth, will enable us to take meaningful steps towards geographic and service offering expansion, while maintaining our high-quality customer relationships and safety-driven employee culture.”
