IMServ, a trusted leader in metering and data services for UK energy suppliers and major business customers, has acquired Astral Tech, a cutting-edge energy tech firm delivering advanced data-led software solutions for the global energy sector.
This strategic acquisition accelerates IMServ’s evolution into a technology driven energy data powerhouse. A group which is now integrating Astral Tech’s unified data model to provide a single version of the truth for energy suppliers and businesses. This new data model will connect insights from meters, assets and customer interactions enabling IMServ’s own customers to cut costs, gain deeper insights, make smarter decisions and unlock better value as they continue to drive the energy transition.
Jo Cox, CEO of IMServ, said:
“This acquisition creates a data launchpad, not just for IMServ, but for the wider energy sector. Astral Tech has built a proven, scalable, and mature solution that’s already delivering real value across Europe and the U.S.
By bringing its expertise to IMServ, we’re creating a unified energy data model that eliminates fragmentation and complexity, ensuring every customer gets the clarity they need—no matter where their data comes from or how they want to use it.
This is the holy grail of energy data, and it puts us at the forefront of the industry as we accelerate the transition to a smarter, more efficient energy future.”
This powerful move also fast-tracks IMServ’s position in Market-Wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS), ensuring seamless, enhanced services from Day 1. This is only the start of our ambitious growth journey, and with the backing of Bluewater, our private equity partners, we are excited about what comes next.”
Jeremy Thomas, CEO of Astral Tech, added:
Astral Tech has always led the way in creating innovative energy software as a service. With the support of IMServ we’ll be able to accelerate the pace at which we bring those innovations to market, and combining our respective skillsets in technology, data and metering services will deliver even greater benefits for our customers.
We’ve had a global outlook since we launched – serving energy retailers on three continents. Our technology will not only strengthen IMServ’s position as a leading UK energy data and metering services provider, but together, we’ll evolve IMServ into a truly global energy data leader.”
This acquisition marks a bold step forward in the evolution of energy data services—helping suppliers and businesses turn complexity into opportunity.
