About us

Providing reliable engineering solutions

Our Story

Our team has decades of engineering experience covering research and development through to full scale production.

The founders of STN recognise that to truly achieve a clean and sustainable future, significant consideration has to be given to lowering the costs and barrier to entry for electrification of machines.

STN focus on delivering tangible results, quickly and to a high standard, without overcomplicating things in the process.

We also believe in sustainability in design – meaning that products should be maintainable, easy to use and have consideration for their ‘end of first life’ and subsequent re-use.

Our Location

Strategically located at the heart of Sunderland’s manufacturing hub, we are ideally positioned to support all facets of engineering. By partnering with local companies, we ensure dependable, high-quality services for our clients.

Main Office – Washington Business Centre, 2 Turbine Way, Sunderland, SR5 3NZ

Production Integration Workshop

Our production integration unit is central to our product manufacturing and integration services. This facility enables STN to deliver high-quality, fully integrated solutions to our clients.

Our workshop facilities allow us to get hands-on with development on prototypes, vehicles and other developments.

Our separate production facility enables us to build both large prototypes and low-volume production of components.

Our Brands

In April 2025, STN Power Systems were proud to launch the OakEV brand of electric vehicle charger accessories.
