History

Sterling & Wilson began in 1927 as an electrical contracting firm through a partnership between Wilson Electric Works and the Shapoorji Pallonji Group. [3] Over time, the company diversified into MEP contracting, diesel-based power, solar EPC, and turnkey infrastructure. [4]

In 2019, the renewable energy business was demerged and listed independently, establishing Sterling & Wilson as a more decentralised group of specialised companies. Each business operates independently, with its own leadership and operational structure. [5]
