Addressing energy issues all around the world


In a world where demand for energy is rising and environmental concerns are increasingly influencing our choices, how can we ensure our transport, industries, neighborhoods and homes are energy efficient?

setec offers its clients global solutions involving a wide range of engineering services and expertise gained on industrial and infrastructure projects.

These solutions are based on a multi-expertise approach and a proven track record in managing complex projects.

Developing all potential renewable energy sources in connection with territories, seeking for systematic reduction of energy consumption, reducing greenhouse gases, protecting the environment in developed and developing countries, innovating to reduce our reliance on energy, finding and implementing new business and partnership models… These are just some of the major challenges our teams meet day to day.
