Accompanied by Zerbach & Company Corporate Finance GmbH ("Z&C"), the shareholders of INNECKEN Elektrotechnik GmbH ("INNECKEN") and ENERVISION GmbH ("ENERVISION") have sold their shares to GRÄPER Group, based in Ahlhorn, as part of their long-term succession planning.
The acquisition will enable GRÄPER to significantly expand its existing assembly and service network towards the Rhineland. This will not only allow GRÄPER to supplement its comprehensive range of services in medium and low-voltage technology, but also to enter the high-voltage sector through assembly and maintenance in the 110 kV range.
Enervision, a specialist in digitalization and programming in the energy sector, has been successfully developing technical software for over 20 years.
Innecken's managing directors Robert Blaeske and Rudolf Scholz explain: "In GRÄPER, we have found a new owner who will continue to run the companies and develop them in the long term thanks to their expertise and in-depth knowledge of the industry. We are delighted about the excellent strategic fit."
Managing Director Sylvia Fettweiß adds: "For the approximately 150 employees who are now joining the GRÄPER Group, the takeover offers long-term stability and growth opportunities within a strong network and the dynamic corporate culture of a family-owned company."
What this means for the sector: The transaction shows what energy technology and grid service providers are looking for right now: regional installation and service capacity in medium and low voltage, access to the 110 kV level and an established team. For owners of electrical engineering companies serving grid operators and industry, conditions for a sale or succession are currently exceptionally favourable.
