Encevo Group is active along the whole energy value chain, from production to services. It is a key player in the energy transition in Luxembourg and the Greater region. As the global climate crisis calls for ambitious initiatives, Encevo Group will redouble its efforts in energy efficiency, renewable energies and decarbonisation.

In Luxembourg, Encevo Group plays an important role in supporting the country in the implementation of its ambitious energy and climate plan. An important aspect of a sustainable energy transition is energy efficiency. Encevo Group can act at all levels of energy efficiency improvement.

Energy efficiency

Through different subsidiaries, our group assists companies and municipalities in managing their daily energy consumption. Enovos, for example, uses incentives such as communication campaigns or the granting of premiums for energy efficient renovations called enoprimes.  In the services branch, various group subsidiaries (e.g. energieagence, Global Facilities, …)  offer energy consulting or energy management solutions. This can include energy audits, the recommendation of less energy-consuming solutions, advising the installation of photovoltaic panels to help customers achieve a certain degree of autonomy and more.

Decarbonising mobility

As half of the country’s energy consumption comes from mobility, decarbonising transport is the biggest challenge ahead. Electromobility is therefore being promoted nationwide, as it allows the use of renewable energy and as electric engines are more efficient.

After deploying the Chargy network, Creos, the grid operator of Encevo Group, deployed the first high-speed charging stations in January 2021. Group subsidiaries in the domain of technical services are also helping major private and public players to install additional charging stations on their land. Finally, Enovos, via its enodrive card and its application, facilitates access to the recharging network and has even extended this service internationally to offer more mobility and independence to its users.

These few examples reflect our group’s strategy, to give every entity the means to drive the energy transition forward in their respective domains and hopefully make all the pieces of this puzzle come together in the end.

Renewable energies are a core purpose of Encevo Group. In order to support a sustainable energy transition, we focus on developing and operating in the Greater Region projects producing energy from renewable sources. In Luxembourg, the group already has a large photovoltaic asset base and continues to develop wind park projects. Additional photovoltaic and wind projects are developed in Germany, especially in Saarland, the Netherlands and Belgium. Through subsidiaries or joint ventures in Luxembourg, Encevo Group is also active in the field of biomass in combination with heating/cooling networks and in hydropower. Creating partnerships is a key to success in renewable energy projects. This is shown for instance through the development of photovoltaic installations via joint ventures agreements with Post, Cactus, RTL Group and others.

The group has also made huge progress in the field of Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) for big industrial clients and smaller projects, in Luxembourg as well as in Germany. For example, the Group supplies the charging station network Chargy in Luxembourg with 100% back-to-back green energy from fully traceable production facilities.

There are many roads to the energy world of tomorrow. The vision of a fully decarbonised Greater Region will require the increased production of renewable energies and improved energy efficiency. But the role of the consumer will also have to change fundamentally. The Encevo Group sees its role as a catalyst in order to ensure that this transition will be sustainable.

What will be the role of the consumer? He will be tomorrow’s prosumer. This means that everyone will be able to produce his own energy, for example producing power through solar panels installed on one’s roof, and storing it in batteries installed in one’s cellar. As the prosumer lives in a highly energy-efficient house (heat pump, smart thermostat, instantaneous monitoring of energy consumption, …), he will be able to either store his surplus, use it to charge his electric car in his garage or inject it into the grid – which in the meantime will have become intelligent – so that others can benefit from it.

At Encevo, we believe that one of the cornerstones of decarbonisation efforts is mobility. Efficiently managing cleaner mobility, will be essential to the success of the decarbonisation of Luxembourg and the Greater Region. The National Energy and Climate Plans of the countries, in which Encevo Group is active, set a very ambitious framework to a much more sustainable mobility future.  Encevo Group clearly wants to be a driving force, and a reliable partner for its customers and offer standardized and tailor-made solutions.

Encevo is already active in helping shape the future of transportation. In Luxembourg, Creos plays a central role in the build-up of the public charging station network – which is supplied with 100 % green energy by Enovos Luxemburg S.A..

On the customer side, the offer of electromobility charging solutions and services is constantly evolving for private and commercial customers, mainly in Luxembourg, but also in Germany, through municipal utilities in which our group holds shares.

Working for Encevo Group means working for an employer that is committed, visionary and who plays an essential role in the energy transition process in Luxembourg and the Greater Region. Encevo offers innovative and sustainable perspectives while keeping a close eye on the interests of its people and partners.

Encevo is active along the entire energy value chain: Production, storage, supply, transport, trading, distribution and services. The group is aware of the numerous and diverse challenges faced by the energy sector and beyond. The group is continuously looking for solutions that ensure access to sustainable and affordable energy supply while working hard at the same time to promote ways of using it wisely.
