Develop our skills to optimise environmental protection 

SPIE is making a very real contribution to ensuring that the targets set by the European Union (adopted by France's Grenelle environment forum) are met by 2020:

• 20% energy savings
• 20% renewable energy
• 20% cut in greenhouse gas emissions

SPIE, which is the first company to obtain the “energy efficiency” accreditation awarded by SERCE (French association of electrical engineering and HVAC companies), is developing and implementing cutting-edge expertise to reduce energy consumption and protect the environment.

The Group is contributing to the development of low-consumption, "positive energy" buildings and to the promotion of sustainable building in accordance with high environmental quality (HEQ) standards. In urban areas, SPIE is helping to improve living conditions through eco-friendly transport management and by optimising public lighting.

SPIE is also a leading player in the provision of electrical infrastructure for renewable energies: wind power, photovoltaics and biofuels.

SPIE's Technology Institute plays an essential role in fostering the development of the skills of personnel whose work is directly related to environmental issues. As a result, special training courses have been developed in fields such as energy efficiency and public lighting maintenance.
