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 […]
How does a business choose the most appropriate AI solution from the vast range on offer? SECURE Systems & Services has designed an original approach: a POC that helps identify the proposal best suited to its needs. In 2023, a company in the banking sector installed a new hypervisor for its new centralised security system, […]
Lineas, Europe’s largest private rail freight operator, has launched a huge digital transformation aimed at providing a fluid customer experience for its pan-European rail freight services. For this complex project, it engaged the services of VINCI Energies. With slow-to-evolve infrastructure, heavy engineering, and particularly stringent regulations, especially in terms of safety, the rail sector suffers […]
