DirectorI have lived in the Fylde all my life and after being born and living in Kirkham I have spent the last 34 years in Freckleton. I attended Kirkham Grammar School and then graduated from Leeds University in 1980. I joined Inenco Group and worked for them until 2001, when I and two friends set up Trident Utilities. We have continued to grow the company since then with the help of loyal and hard working staff.

Michael Dugdale
Managing DirectorMichael Dugdale
Managing DirectorI started out as a Mechanical Engineer before deciding to return to University and focus my career on business. My energy career started as a graduate analyst 23 years ago and I’ve completed a full circle from energy consultant, power generation & trading, leading teams in energy & water retail, heating services installation and I’m back to energy consultancy where it all started for me. I am proud to lead the Trident business with a clear purpose to Make Energy Simple through our 360° Energy Expertise. Outside of work I’m married with 2 children and still believe I can be a pro sportsman, although my golf handicap, frequent running injuries and general aches & pains tell me the dream is getting harder to achieve.
