Sustainable Energy

For the generation, transportation, storage and recovery of clean energy under environmental and geopolitical pressure.

Sustainable energy

We focus on optimal management and efficiency of sustainable energy.

Minimal planning losses

Fluctuations in energy supply due to weather conditions and varying energy demand make planning complex.

Our technologies enable optimal planning and scheduling of energy management. This allows us to limit planning losses and make energy management more reliable.

Control room energy management

Maximum infrastructure availability

When the wind blows, wind turbines should turn. When the sun shines, solar panels should perform optimally.

Our technologies enable predictive maintenance, ensuring that energy infrastructure and machinery are available exactly when they are needed.

Energie opwekking

Sustainable, climate-neutral energy

The energy mix of the future must be sustainable and climate-neutral.

Our technologies support the generation, transport and storage of electrical and thermal energy. In this way, we are contributing to the foundation for a greener energy system.

Our vision and context

The future of energy production

The energy production of the future will be sustainable and climate neutral, based on a mix of renewable, nuclear and other carbon-neutral energy sources. This mix includes offshore and onshore wind energy, solar energy, hydrogen, nuclear energy, fusion and geothermal energy.

At the same time, the current geopolitical context makes it necessary to strengthen the self-sufficiency and resilience of the energy supply.
