Boost is a small British firm that has been manufacturing phase converters since before 1957. It has always been owner-managed and prides itself on delivering a reliable product at an affordable price combined with high quality service. For many years the firm traded as Boost Electrical Engineering until late 2003 when it changed to Boost Energy Systems, but it continues to be run by professional chartered engineers. The name 'Boost' comes from the founder's use of a boost relay in the initial phase converter design.

The standard phase converter sold worldwide by Boost variously went under the brand of Hi-Tec^TM or Booster^TM but in late 2003 we rebranded this as the Classic^TM range of phase converters. In mid 2004 we reintroduced the Booster^TM brand for our more advanced models which are unmatched by any other UK manufacturer and in late 2004 we moved two miles from Felix Farm, Binfield to larger premises at Park Farm, Warfield in order to keep up with demand.

In late 2005 Boost acquired Ampair the world renowned, wind, water and solar energy specialists who are the UK's oldest wind turbine manufacturer. This move is part of a growth plan to create a business servicing all sectors of the worldwide small scale renewable energy market. This was a friendly acquisition and we have been able to relocate most of the staff to the main manufacturing premises in Berkshire, or make arrangements for them to continue on an outsourced basis. Ampair^TM  and Aquair^TM are brand names that we have taken over with Ampair.

Boost is a professional manufacturer. This means we operate from commercial premises, build to our own designs, have our own test equipment, have product liability insurance, offer a 24-hour help line (as far as possible), train and develop our staff, pay the right taxes, and in general do all the things that are skimped on by people who throw their products together.

At Boost we believe that sustainable societies can only be built with integrated mixed economies based upon a variety of energy sources with a long term future. For this reason we continue to invest in our UK manufacturing operations and are actively seeking to develop our renewable and distributed energy business.
