Ensto

Ensto is an international technology company and family business focused on electricity distribution. Its work centres on solutions that promote resilient, safe distribution networks, with low-voltage distribution and automation forming a principal area of activity. The company addresses power quality through equipment such as phase balancers and voltage controllers, linking network control with the operational demands of modern electricity systems. This concentration places electricity distribution reliability and capacity at the centre of its commercial role.

The business has evolved from a broader electrification portfolio toward a clearer focus on electricity distribution in the 2020s. Earlier organisational development included business units for smart buildings, utility networks and digital solutions, spanning electrification, lighting, electric vehicle charging and network technologies. In 2009, it sold its interest in electric installation equipment and accessories manufacturer Ensto Busch Jaeger to ABB, ending a joint venture that had operated since 1980. Family ownership remains an important part of the company’s identity, alongside its international technology orientation.
