A comprehensive solution for industry partners
Neil Lake, managing director of APP Wholesale Ltd, said: “We are thrilled to provide a complete solution that addresses the evolving needs of merchants and installers in the renewable energy sector.
“Ultimate Renewables Supplies has developed an unparalleled service that we are confident will strengthen market confidence and give our customers the enhanced support they deserve.”
With this acquisition, APP Wholesale Ltd aims to become a one-stop destination for renewable energy, integrating a wide array of products, from heat pumps and MVHR to solar PV, battery storage, and underfloor heating (UFH).

“Our rapid expansion will continue to progress because of this acquisition. Having dealt with APP for several years, I believe that we share the same values and vision on the renewable sector, and being a part of the APP group means that Ultimate Renewables will be able to expand to the size that I genuinely believe it can.”
John McCarthy, operations director at Ultimate Renewables Supplies, said “This next chapter for Ultimate Renewables is something I am really looking forward to.
“Our team have helped us create a fantastic business working at the cutting edge of renewable technologies, and I believe our continued growth trajectory can be maintained with this integration.
