AMP Group Ltd achieve success – The design and manufacture of UPS’s for the second batch of the Type 26 Frigates.

AMP Power Protection, part of the AMP Group, are pleased to announce that they have been selected to supply the next generation of Uninterruptible Power Supply Units (UPS’S) to support BAE Systems in the Batch 2 Programme and ultimately protect the next 5 Type 26 Frigates.

The contract for the Batch 1 ships manufacture was awarded to AMP Power Protection June 2017 and has been hugely successful.

BAE Systems provided the outline specification and requirements which allowed AMP Power Protection to design and build the best technical and commercially viable UPS Power Package to fulfill the brief.

Delivery of the equipment will be throughout 2023.

AMP Group MD, Martin Peacock said: –

“We are very proud to be associated with this project. The UPS is a critical part of the Type 26 Infrastructure, which will add capability and resilience to the second batch of ships.

We have previously worked with BAE Systems during Batch 1, where we manufactured and supplied UPS Systems that were professionally designed to ensure we met all of BAE’s requirement. The UPS’s we have manufactured will operate safely, effectively, and efficiently within the battlespace environment ensuring the safety of our Royal Navy Personnel.

We are looking forward to delivering these to our client throughout this year and further developing our relationship with BAE in years to come.”
