LONDON (Alliance News) - APC Technology Group PLC on Tuesday said its Minimise Solutions business has extended its contract with Royal Mail Group PLC while its recently acquired EEVS has won contracts with the UK National Health Service.

The energy efficiency company said Royal Mail has extended the scope of its contract to include critical asset monitoring and an upgraded energy management system.
