A new approach to steam generation and energy management aims to provide fully integrated solutions that help companies to reduce operational complexities, lower costs, and enhance efficiencies.

John Thompson, a division of ACTOM, offers a range of services including equipment ownership, plant operation, efficiency improvements, green solutions and complete management of boiler facilities, aimed at enabling businesses to focus on core operations while ensuring sustainable and reliable energy supply.

“At John Thompson, we don’t just provide equipment – we offer a complete energy solution. By managing the entire energy process, from equipment ownership to plant operation and efficiency improvements, we empower businesses to reduce operational complexities and focus on growth and innovation,” notes John Thompson GM: energy management business unit Peter Rube.

One aspect of the approach is the conversion of waste byproducts and sustainably sourced fuels into revenue streams. This focus on sustainability helps improve operational efficiency while aligning with circular economy practices by repurposing waste, reducing environmental impact, and creating new economic opportunities for clients. Greener solutions encompass the enhancement of fossil fuel equipment efficiency and integrating sustainable alternatives such as biomass firing and combined heat and power solutions.

The company says it provides businesses with a stable and predictable energy supply, taking full responsibility for energy generation. This helps to ensure consistent performance, regulatory compliance, and proactive maintenance. By managing all aspects of energy operations, it enables companies to simplify their energy needs, optimise uptime, reduce costs and access engineering support.

"We are committed to redefining energy management by offering complete solutions that empower businesses to focus on their core strengths while achieving their sustainability goals," says John Thompson proposals engineer Gideon Bosman.
