AES Cables Ltd is a specialised environmental company providing solutions for the problem of redundant oil-filled cables and ancillary tanks.

Our objective is to eliminate the risk of environmental damage caused by oil leaks from old redundant underground cables, intrusion from third party excavations and vandalism. The potential financial liability and damage to corporate reputation has led to a greater awareness of the existing precarious situation that has been evolving since cables were first laid underground.

AES Cables have a unique patented system that is totally safe, reliable and cost effective. Utilising our Hydrogel product we are able to  purge up to 97% of the oil from power cables in an uncontaminated state so that it can be safely re-cycled without any further environmental impact.  We are also able, in many circumstances, to recover the oil without any intrusive operations minimising the effect on local communities and transport systems.

Our system also involves utilising specific hydrocarbon degrading bacteria as a final stage treatment where the cables and equipment are being left underground. The remaining traces of oil are reduced to CO2 and water as a by-product of this biological process.

Our parent company Applied Environmental Solutions provide an emergency call out service to advise and coordinate incident response measures and risk assessments following oil pollution leaks. Partner of Balkans Oil & Energy (UK) Limited
