Horstmann and PRI shared vision for smart metering and home energy controls.
Horstmann is a long established and leading manufacturer of domestic and commercial heating controls for both electrical and gas heating systems.
It also has a pre-eminent position in the UK for Smart Metering and Demand Side Management products which use the UK Radio Teleswitch system.
Entity Group's interests in the UK include PRI Limited in Winchester.
Both Horstmann and PRI share the vision for Smart Metering and Home Energy Controls and already have a lot in common at the strategic level.
Each business remains focused on its own customers and markets.
This move creates the most advanced, interoperable range of Smart Metering and Home Control solutions available in the UK.
PRI and Horstmann individually enjoy the reputation as leaders of the Smart Metering agenda and have a number of active projects in the UK.
They promote Smart Metering and see energy conservation by the active involvement of domestic energy users as a key element of the climate change agenda.
Sanjaya Singhal CEO of Entity Group commented; "Horstmann is a perfect fit for our strategy to deliver Smart Metering in the UK and for our global Advanced Metering Infrastructure roadmap".
"Their experience and knowledge of Home Controls and display devices and their strong development team will help us develop Horstmann as a centre of excellence in these areas".
"Horstmann will continue to be led by its present Managing Director Les Woolner and its Engineering and Operations Director Andy Deeming".
"Les is delighted with these recent events stating; "This move provides Horstmann with the resources necessary to address the rapidly developing Smart Metering market and continue to build our position in Heating Controls".
""We have a successful track record in bringing new products and services to market and, as part of the Entity Group, we will be able to respond even more quickly to the challenges ahead".
