Northern Energy to relocate headquarters to new Boroughbridge site
Northern Energy is set to relocate staff and operations to its new headquarters in Boroughbridge.
The company is currently based in Hampsthwaite, where it has operated for more than half a century.
The firm distributes domestic, commercial and agricultural oil and liquified petroleum gas across the north of England.
However, Northern Energy is set to relocate operations to Limebar Lane, one kilometre from the village of Marton-cum-Grafton and next to the A168.
After outgrowing its existing site, the company opened a new storage and distribution depot at Boroughbridge last year.
Construction is now underway on the company’s new 10,000 sq ft head office at the site.

The Boroughbridge depot complements Northern Energy’s eight other fuel depots across the country, which predominantly supply off-grid areas. The new site has three bulk LPG storage tanks, with a combined capacity of 360,000 litres. One-third of this capacity has been designed to accommodate renewable liquid gases in the future.
Approximately 60 members of Northern Energy’s 120-strong team will be based in the new offices, which are due to open in April 2027.
James Illingworth from Northern Energy, an independent, family-run business, said:
This development marks a new chapter for us, giving us a large LPG storage and distribution facility next to the A1. It represents a big step towards a more sustainable future by reducing our carbon footprint and operational emissions, whilst maintaining the high level of service our customers enjoy.
Meanwhile, the company has also hired other North Yorkshire based companies to help with the project.
York-headquartered Ben Johnson Interiors has been appointed to deliver the interior fit-out for the scheme, which has been designed by Harrogate-based Studio 93. York-based chartered surveying and property consultancy Ousebank is acting as employer’s agent, quantity surveyor and project manager, overseeing procurement, cost management and project delivery on Northern Energy’s behalf.
