IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED
IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED is a private limited company that was registered in the United Kingdom under company number 06883308. It was incorporated on 21 April 2009 and, according to the Companies House register, was dissolved on 14 April 2019 following a creditors’ voluntary liquidation. Its registered office was recorded at Yorkshire House, 18 Chapel Street, Liverpool, L3 9AG.
The company’s name and its position within the Gaelectric/Imperative Energy corporate family point to an energy-sector business, though Companies House recorded its statutory activity under the general classification SIC 74909, "other professional, scientific and technical activities not elsewhere classified," rather than a specific energy or renewables code. Its most recent filed accounts covered the period to 31 March 2015.
An administrator was appointed over the company on 11 November 2016. The case moved into creditors’ voluntary liquidation on 6 April 2017, and a voluntary liquidator was appointed on 2 May 2017. The final liquidation meeting was reported on 14 January 2019, and the company was formally struck off and dissolved on 14 April 2019 following publication in the London Gazette. IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED is not an active or currently trading entity.

Shareholders of IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED
The Companies House persons-with-significant-control (PSC) register for IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED discloses one person with significant control: Gaelectric Holdings Plc, a private company registered in Ireland (registration number 418730), recorded as holding 75% or more of the company’s shares. The interest was notified on 6 April 2016. Companies House statements of capital filed with the 2015 and 2016 annual returns show the company’s total issued share capital as GBP 1, comprising a single ordinary GBP 1 share, consistent with a simple, wholly-controlled shareholding structure. Because the company was dissolved in 2019, this reflects the last position recorded at Companies House rather than a current shareholding. Zavia’s internal registry data separately records Imperative Energy Holdings (UK) Limited as the 100% direct shareholder; this specific claim could not be independently confirmed against a Companies House share-register filing during this research, so the Companies House PSC filing for Gaelectric Holdings Plc is treated as the verified position.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No natural person has been registered as an ultimate beneficial owner on the Companies House PSC register. The disclosed person with significant control is the corporate entity Gaelectric Holdings Plc; the individuals who ultimately control that entity were not disclosed in this filing and were not independently traced.
Data availability
Historical: Companies House PSC and share-capital data for this company were last updated before its dissolution in April 2019 and are not maintained afterward.

Officers
10
Directors and officers of IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED
The Companies House officers register lists 11 appointments for this company: 3 carry no recorded resignation date and 8 are formally resigned. The unresigned appointments are Barry Gavin (Company Secretary and, separately, Director, both appointed 18 June 2014) and Éamonn McGrath (Director, appointed 11 August 2015). None of these three appointments carries a resignation or termination date in the register, even though the company itself was dissolved on 14 April 2019 following liquidation; dissolution does not automatically generate a resignation filing for serving officers. The eight resigned officers are Joe O’Carroll (Secretary and, separately, Director, both resigned 18 June 2014), Phil Beeson (Director, resigned 2 March 2011), Alan Paul Marshall (Director, resigned 24 November 2011), John O’Reilly (Director, resigned 18 June 2014), Martin Pickard (Director, resigned 24 November 2011), Kian Ryan (Director, resigned 11 September 2015) and Michael Robert Sergeant (Director, resigned 28 June 2012). Register data was retrieved 22 September 2026.

Data availability
Full: Companies House publishes current and historical officer appointments, with appointment and resignation dates, for this dissolved company. Nationality is disclosed for the two unresigned directors: Barry Gavin is recorded as Irish on his director appointment and British on his secretary appointment, a discrepancy present in the register itself rather than an inference made here; Éamonn McGrath is recorded as Irish.

Correspondence addresses shown in the register are service addresses, not residential addresses, and are not used here to infer nationality or residence.

Group Structure
Group structure of IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED
IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED was not independently owned. The Companies House persons-with-significant-control register for the company names Gaelectric Holdings Plc (Ireland, registration number 418730) as holding significant control through 75% or more of the company’s shares, notified 6 April 2016; this is the one corporate relationship independently verified against the company’s own Companies House filing. Zavia’s internal registry linkage data also lists Imperative Energy Holdings (UK) Limited (company number 07890913, also dissolved, on 19 June 2018) as a related entity in the same corporate family; its existence and dissolution were confirmed directly at Companies House, but no primary filing was located during this research documenting a shareholding by that company in IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED, so this relationship is reported as possible rather than verified. No subsidiaries of IMPERATIVE ENERGY (UK) LIMITED were identified. All information reflects the position last recorded before the companies involved were dissolved.
