Reliable Power Solutions for Financial & Commercial Sectors

In financial and commercial environments, power failure isn’t just inconvenient, it’s costly. From lost transactions and data breaches to reputational damage and regulatory non-compliance, the risks are real. Shenton Group delivers tailored generator and UPS systems that ensure uninterrupted operations, protect sensitive data, and meet the highest industry standards, including FCA, GDPR and ISO requirements. Trusted by banks such as Bank of Cyprus UK, financial trading firms, retail chains and major London office developments including Marble Arch Place and Ilona Rose House, we keep your business powered, secure, and compliant no matter what. 

What’s at Stake Without Reliable Power?

  • Operational Disruption: Staff downtime, customer service impact.
  • Financial Loss: Missed transactions, halted trading, lost revenue.
  • Data Vulnerability: Risk of corruption or loss during outages.
  • Reputational Damage: Clients lose trust when systems go down.
  • Compliance Failures: Breaches of FCA, GDPR, or ISO standards.

Power for Banks, Trading Floors & Commercial Developments 

  • Banking & financial trading — Bank of Cyprus UK partnered with our Power Call emergency generator service, recognising that continuous power is essential for banks to maintain business systems in the event of mains failure. We also supplied a synchronised pair of 1250kVA standby generators, plus a comprehensive maintenance package, for a global financial spread-betting firm relocating its headquarters to London. 
  • Mixed-use commercial developments — We designed, supplied and installed the life safety and backup power solution for Marble Arch Place, a new mixed-use development on Bayswater Road, Marylebone. At Ilona Rose House in Soho — a ÂŁ100m, 31,000sqm, 13-floor development containing shops, restaurants, bars, offices and residential apartments — our solution supported the full mix of commercial uses on site. 
  • Large-scale distribution & retail — For one of the largest online retailers in the UK, we provided 3MVA of standby power across eight generators, working closely with the client’s consultant from the earliest design stages to deliver a resilient, unique approach for their distribution centre.
