A single breakthrough technology won't win Europe's energy transition. It will be won by systems that work!

Our CBO, Rukmini Glanard, has shared her thoughts on the European energy transition in an article for illuminem. She highlights that diversity in the energy system isn't a weakness. It's a source of resilience. A balanced, technology‑agnostic portfolio reduces exposure to supply shocks, price volatility, and shifting policy landscapes. It gives our energy systems the flexibility to adapt rather than break, while opening multiple pathways for investment and progress. Being technology‑agnostic isn't about slowing innovation.

It's about accelerating impact. When we treat technology as a toolkit rather than a trophy case, we unlock faster deployment, greater resilience, and a transition that is truly both climate‑aligned and economically sustainable. Ultimately, success won't be measured by which technology dominates headlines, but by how quickly and credibly we cut emissions across the real economy. Europe's future depends on choosing what works, not what trends. Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/dXxHfa5e Im Gespräch mit Handelsblatt tackelt Dr.

Unsere Projekte senken CO₂ messbar und verbessern die Bilanz zugleich.

In a recent interview for the Business Focus Magazine, our Chief Business Officer, Rukmini Glanard, shared powerful insights into how we support industrial and real estate companies in reducing their carbon footprint while ensuring... As Rukmini points out: "We don't say to customers, 'We're only interested if you want a fully green production facility.' We accompany our customers through the energy transition at a time when they're facing... They need to improve energy efficiency, meet financial targets, and maintain quality, security, and compliance." Decarbonisation is no longer a future ambition.

It's a present‑day business imperative! ➡️ Read more about how our blend of technical expertise, rapid execution, and tailored solutions demonstrates how companies can achieve both sustainability and competitiveness: https://lnkd.in/eaUETR7B Europe’s energy transition requires a new perspective 🔍 The industrial sector lags in the energy transition as discussions remain overly focused on the electricity market. More than half of industrial energy use is heat, and the industry accounts for 20% of EU emissions. Yet, this sector remains underprioritised. Efficiency and waste‑heat recovery alone could cut industrial emissions by up to 30% by 2030, often with strong returns.

In an op-ed by Tagesspiegel Background, our CEO, Pierre-Alain Graf, highlights that resilience, the ability to withstand price shocks and supply disruptions, remains underestimated in financing and policy. There is a need for sustainable finance that rewards real impact: emissions reduction, cost stability, and supply security. Decentralised, technology‑neutral solutions and models, such as energy and infrastructure-as-a-service, enable industrial modernisation without requiring companies to bind or invest their own capital. The energy transition will hinge on specific investment decisions and recognising resilience as an economic asset rather than an afterthought.

Services are provided under long-term contracts to industrial clients as well as to the real estate/housing sector.

THE INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS FUND IS NEW OWNER OF GETEC GROUP The acquisition of GETEC Group by the Infrastructure Investments Fund (IIF), an investment vehicle advised by J.P.

GETEC provides sustainable, smart and efficient energy solutions to customers in the real estate and industrial sectors across Europe. The company has achieved tremendous growth and today operates more than 11,500 plant assets in nine Europeancountries with more than 5.4 GWth of cumulative installed capacity and over 2,200 employees.

Matthew LeBlanc, Chief Investment Officer for IIF said: “We are thrilled to have reached this milestone with the completion of the acquisition of GETEC and to in herit a world class business from EQT... Karl Gerhold. GETEC has significant opportunities to expand as the market leader delivering innovative, secure, green energy solutions for its customers, stakeholders and communities.
