Lancashire-based LG Energy Group (LGE) has announced the acquisition of Liverpool firm Guild Energy.

The energy consultation, intelligence and procurement business bought the gas and power advisors for an undisclosed sum.

LGE Managing Director, Asif Rizvi, said: “The acquisition of Guild Energy further enhances our customer offering as the merger of mall and medium-sized enterprises with our current industrial and commercial products allows us to provide a more holistic approach to the market.

“The sharing of people, knowledge and systems across the companies will only strengthen the management and direction of both businesses.”
