Ryan Johnstone Electrical
The foundation of excellence that naturally evolved into Fusion Renewables. Over two decades of trusted electrical expertise across Southern Scotland.
Ryan Johnstone Electrical Contractors History
Ryan Johnstone Electrical Contractors (RJEC) was formally established in Dumfries in 2009, building on years of hands-on experience and a growing reputation for quality electrical work across Southern Scotland.
In 2015, recognising the growing demand for reliable electrical services, Ryan expanded the team by hiring an apprentice. This decision reflected the company's dual commitment: managing an increasing workload while maintaining the high service standards clients had come to expect, and supporting local youth by providing valuable training opportunities.
For over 16 years, RJEC has built an outstanding reputation for reliable, honest service across Southern Scotland and beyond. This foundation of trust and technical excellence would prove essential as the business evolved to meet the changing energy landscape.

Built on Trust and Excellence
From the very beginning, RJEC has been built on a simple philosophy: deliver reliable, honest service that clients can depend on. This commitment to integrity and quality has earned the company an exceptional reputation across Southern Scotland and beyond, with many clients returning year after year and recommending the service to others.
This reputation wasn't built overnight. It came from showing up on time, completing work to the highest standards, standing behind every installation, and always putting the client's needs first. These core values remain unchanged, whether the work involves traditional electrical services or cutting-edge renewable energy systems.
The Evolution: From RJEC to Fusion Renewables
The transition from traditional electrical work to renewable energy wasn't a sudden shift—it was a natural evolution driven by technical expertise, client needs, and a commitment to sustainable solutions.
A Foundation in Technical Excellence
RJEC spent 25 years mastering complex electrical systems, including full-scale commercial rewiring, industrial heating installations, and sophisticated agricultural electrical projects. This wasn't just basic wiring—it was high-level electrical engineering that required deep technical knowledge and precision.
This extensive background provided the perfect foundation for renewable energy work. Solar PV systems, battery storage, and EV chargers all require sophisticated electrical expertise—from understanding three-phase power systems to managing complex inverter installations and ensuring proper earthing and protection systems. The skills developed over decades of traditional electrical work translated seamlessly into the renewable energy sector.
Specialised Lighting and Efficiency
RJEC's existing focus on LED lighting installations and smart heating controls served as a natural bridge to renewable energy. By helping clients reduce their energy consumption through efficient lighting and intelligent heating systems, the company was already deeply involved in the energy efficiency conversation.
Clients who had saved money by upgrading to LED lighting or installing smart heating controls naturally asked: "What's the next step?" The answer was clear—renewable energy generation. Moving from helping clients use less energy to helping them generate their own clean energy was the logical progression, and Fusion Renewables was born from this natural evolution.
Accreditations & Standards
SELECT Accredited
Scotland's leading electrical trade association
Dumfries & Galloway Trusted Trader
Vetted local contractor scheme
MCS Certified
Microgeneration Certification Scheme
Commitment to Local Standards
Just as RJEC earned accreditation from SELECT and became a trusted member of the Dumfries & Galloway Trusted Trader Scheme, Fusion Renewables was built on the same principles of being a vetted, reputable, and thoroughly local Southern Scotland contractor.
The transition to renewable energy required additional certifications—MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) accreditation, specialized training in solar PV and battery storage systems, and EV charger installation qualifications. But the underlying commitment remained the same: meet and exceed industry standards, maintain full compliance, and always put quality and safety first.
A Natural Transition
The evolution from Ryan Johnstone Electrical to Fusion Renewables wasn't a departure from the company's roots—it was the natural next chapter in a story of continuous improvement and adaptation to client needs.
The same hands that wired commercial buildings and installed industrial heating systems now install solar panels and battery storage. The same commitment to quality that earned RJEC its reputation now drives every Fusion Renewables installation. The same local knowledge and personal service that made RJEC a trusted name continues with Fusion Renewables.
Ryan Johnstone Electrical provided the foundation—the technical skills, the reputation for quality, the commitment to honest service, and the deep roots in the Southern Scotland community. Fusion Renewables builds on that foundation, applying decades of electrical expertise to the renewable energy systems that will power our future.
