A commercialisation business with deep institutional roots in West Yorkshire.
TGE Group is a commercialisation and market access business. We help innovative companies in the green energy, clean technology, and just transition space scale commercially and enter new markets. We work alongside universities, combined authorities, and innovation bodies, operating on a funded model that means the support is free at the point of use for the companies we work with. TGE is based in West Yorkshire.
Values guiding us
Commercialisation First
We are dedicated to preserving the planet’s resources for future generations by actively reducing our ecological footprint.
Institutional Integrity
TGE’s funded model only works if institutions trust that the outcomes they commission are real. We do not report activity as impact.
Just Transition as Outcome
A just transition is not a brand position. It is what happens when green energy companies reach commercial scale, create jobs, and enter new markets. That is what TGE’s work produces.
