For more than 45 years, JCE Group has specialised in the design, manufacture and installation of electrical control and power systems for hazardous and safe area applications, supporting operators and the wider energy supply chain across the UK and international markets.
With expertise in ATEX and IECEx certified equipment, JCE delivers engineered solutions for environments where safety, reliability and compliance are critical. Its capabilities span Ex d, Ex e, Ex i and Ex p control systems, junction boxes, power distribution, battery systems and renewable technologies, with equipment engineered around the technical, environmental and certification requirements of each application.
A key strength is JCE’s ability to solve complex electrical engineering challenges in demanding hazardous environments. Rather than relying solely on standard products, its engineering teams develop bespoke systems to meet specific project requirements, supporting clients from initial design and certification through to manufacture, testing and installation.
Engineering for Demanding Applications
Recent projects demonstrate the breadth of this capability across the global energy sector.
For an FPSO offshore Western Australia, JCE engineered a temporary battery-backed monitoring power system designed to provide 75 days of autonomous operation during an extended shutdown. The solution incorporated Ex certified battery assemblies, isolators, chargers and battery management equipment, enabling essential monitoring equipment to remain operational without reliance on the platform’s normal power supply.
JCE continues to deliver bespoke Ex certified control and power systems for offshore and onshore energy applications, drawing on decades of hazardous area experience to meet demanding project specifications and operating conditions.
Supporting the Energy Transition
Alongside its established oil and gas capabilities, JCE is applying the same hazardous area engineering expertise to the energy transition.
The company has developed a growing portfolio of ATEX and IECEx certified solar solutions, wind generation, battery storage and hybrid power systems for remote and hazardous area applications. These technologies can provide reliable power for monitoring, communications, instrumentation and other electrical loads where conventional infrastructure may be unavailable or impractical.
By combining renewable technology with established hazardous area engineering expertise, JCE can help operators reduce reliance on conventional power generation and associated infrastructure without compromising the safety, certification or reliability required in challenging energy environments.
Building Global Connections
Through the Global Energy Network, JCE is looking to strengthen relationships with operators, EPC contractors, engineering companies and supply chain partners seeking specialist support for hazardous area electrical systems, bespoke Ex equipment and remote or renewable power applications.
The company welcomes opportunities to become involved at an early stage, where its engineering and certification expertise can help develop solutions around specific operational and project requirements.
Looking Ahead
Over the next 12 to 18 months, JCE sees continued growth opportunities across both traditional and emerging energy markets, particularly where hazardous area requirements intersect with electrification, remote operations and lower-emission power technologies.
With more than four decades of hazardous area experience, JCE continues to evolve its capabilities while maintaining the engineering, compliance and reliability that have underpinned its work across the global energy industry.
