Securing sufficient energy sources to support continued economic growth in the face of price volatility, regulatory uncertainty and increasing environmental challenges is a continuing global challenge. While many markets remain focussed on improving traditional thermal energy processes and infrastructure, other regions have set their sights on emerging technology, such as smart grids, and alternative energy sources, including renewable energy. Both private and public energy clients are looking for exceptional technical expertise that will ensure their infrastructure and services are delivered to the highest standard, on time and to strict budgets, without compromising on efficiency, security and longevity.
