Prior Power Solutions has launched a new operational base in Grimsby, strengthening its support for the UK’s offshore wind and marine industries. The move positions the company closer to key offshore wind projects such as Hornsea, Triton Knoll, and Dogger Bank, where demand for reliable Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) support remains high.
The Grimsby facility will focus on servicing, maintaining, and supplying parts for CTVs operating in the North Sea. This expansion builds on the company’s 45-year marine engineering track record and aims to minimise vessel downtime through faster turnaround and local expertise.
Grimsby’s established marine infrastructure, including its offshore wind training centre, vessel berthing facilities, and heavy-lifting capabilities, offers the logistical advantage needed for quick response times. The site also benefits from partnerships with local operators, including Bacon Engineering Group for custom fabrication and Grimsby Shipyard Services, which provides a 200-tonne boat hoist.
Now fully operational, the site marks Prior Power Solutions’ continued commitment to the offshore renewable sector. The firm remains an authorised dealer for major engine brands including Volvo Penta, Cummins, and Kohler, with servicing expertise extending to Scania and CAT engines.
