Bryt Energy, a provider of renewable energy solutions based in the United Kingdom, has executed a new office lease to transition its operations to Cornerblock, located in Birmingham’s business district. This relocation from its current premises at 1 Victoria Square signifies a strategic move as the company secures a 12,500 square foot office space tailored to further its mission of sustainability.
Originally founded in 2016 by Statkraft, one of Europe’s largest renewable energy producers, Bryt Energy is committed to aiding businesses in the UK transition towards net zero by offering 100 per cent renewable electricity. This electricity is derived exclusively from solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, ensuring a sustainable energy solution for its clientele.
Cornerblock, managed by Bruntwood SciTech, forms part of a broader initiative to establish innovation-led hubs throughout Birmingham. The refurbishment efforts undertaken by Bruntwood SciTech have rendered the Cornerblock facility particularly appealing to companies focused on growth and innovation. Within this modernised facility, Bryt Energy will join a cohort of businesses, including established entities like the digital transformation firm Kainos, cyber insurer Beazley, and Sedgwick, a provider of risk solutions.
According to Ian Brothwell, Managing Director of Bryt Energy, the new office space will support the organisation’s talented team and bolster the continued pursuit of its sustainability objectives. Such an environment is conducive to collaboration with like-minded companies and supports the company’s overarching mission to guide British businesses in achieving their sustainability goals.
Rob Valentine, Bruntwood SciTech’s Regional Director, emphasised the significance of Cornerblock in providing an ideal setting for businesses to thrive through synergistic engagements. He highlighted the refurbishment’s role in establishing Cornerblock as a preferred destination for forward-thinking organisations. This ecosystem of science, technology, and innovative enterprises is envisioned to act as a catalyst for business growth both within Birmingham and across the UK.
This relocation aligns with Bruntwood SciTech’s broader commitment to fostering environments that build collaborative links among tech-driven companies. Their ongoing investments in Birmingham, such as the £4.5 million refurbishment of Centre City in Hill Street and the development of a new life sciences campus in Selly Oak, reinforce this strategy.
Bryt Energy’s move to Cornerblock marks a significant step in aligning its operational goals with its sustainability mission.
