Re-industrialisation and industrial sovereignty are key elements in recovery plans in most developed economies. The development of robotisation is a powerful factor in this global movement. In an increasingly competitive economic context, productivity and agility remain key to industrial expansion worldwide. And robotisation has long been seen as a major factor in the sector’s transformation. […]
In the booming industrial robotics market, the VINCI Energies industry brand has, through its extensive network of business units, developed the expertise to position itself as a major player in the sector by integrating every type of expertise. From enhanced flexibility, lower costs, increased productivity and improved quality to reduced workplace risk and the elimination […]
The use of mobile robotics in industrial settings is developing rapidly. Private 4G/5G networks are a fast-maturing solution to ensure a reliable, robust connection on complex sites. We look at some examples with Axians, from the Port of Rotterdam to the Mercedes-Benz head office in France. Private industrial 5G provides a reliable, low-latency connection for […]
Increasing numbers of electric vehicles in France are creating significant new demand for charging facilities. In the race to roll out charging stations, tertiary buildings have an opportunity to become vital links in the development of electric mobility. According to various predictions, by 2035, there will be almost 17 million electric vehicles on France’s roads, […]
How can industrial energy consumption be controlled and reduced? In the cold and heat production sector, CEF Nord, in collaboration with numerous other VINCI Energies business units, has designed a configurable, cost-optimised solution. To support its customers in their energy transitions and reduce the energy consumption of their equipment (heat and cold production, air handling, […]
Because they are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, buildings and infrastructure make an excellent testing ground for innovation in adaptation strategies. The VINCI Group is equipped with specialist tools to support cities and buildings on their journey toward climate resilience. Plus 4 °C by 2100 – this is what countries are preparing for, […]
VINCI Energies, QuantumBasel and D-Wave have launched a cooperative project to harness the power of quantum computing to optimise heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system design for complex buildings. To provide a comfortable and healthy indoor environment for building users, an HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system must be designed to ensure that […]
Because of the large-scale contracts it generates, the French government’s energy transition strategy for state-owned building stock requires a dedicated organisational approach from the companies involved. VINCI Energies is at the forefront of this dynamic market. The French government’s real estate assets number more than 190,000 buildings. Representing around 94 million square metres of floor […]
Construction is attracting increasing scrutiny in connection with environmental transition. But there is relatively little focus on deconstruction, the more demanding but clearly more environmentally friendly alternative to demolition. This is a vital component in the circularity of a building. Every year, the building sector in France generates around 45 million tonnes of waste, half […]
