RENEWABLES ARE ENERGISING REGIONS!

By ENGIE - 03 March 2022 - 17:31

Essential for the environment, renewable energies are also a real wealth for the territories. This is the case of wind power, solar power and green gases, which make it possible to develop all local resources. With the key, the creation of jobs, income, and new industrial and territorial ecosystems! 

 

Regions: where tomorrow’s energies are brewing

Renewable energies are everywhere, in the earth, in the water, in the air... but above all, they are at the heart of our territories!

Regions: the place to be

Our country's target for carbon neutrality by 2050 obviously applies to regions. But the challenge is so much more than an obligation - it also offers many opportunities for regions to (re)vitalise their economic growth, their jobs, their appeal, etc. Read all about it

Decarbonising regions unfolds locally

Highly supportive of its industrial clients for years, ENGIE is also a close ally of local authorities. We are convinced that as beneficial as renewables are for the environment, they are also beneficial for regions, to which they can supply energy. To develop renewables, whether wind power, biogas, or hydrogen, it is essential to build more dedicated infrastructures. These implantations naturally have a positive local impact in more than one respect. In an approach based on circular economy, they encourage the development of SMEs and micro businesses, for example through their involvement in installation work, which has a powerful impact on regional employment.

Green hydrogen, a local and renewable energy

Hydrogen is an ultra-light gas that can be used to fuel cars, trains and ships without producing any pollution at all. Could hydrogen be the missing link of carbon neutrality? At ENGIE, we are convinced that it is.

Biomethane: the asset of regions for a carbon-free economy

In an era where decarbonisation and the search for reliable and sustainable energy production solutions have taken the centre stage, ENGIE is betting more than ever on biomethane; a renewable energy with numerous advantages. As such, the Group has recently inaugurated three new methane units in France. Discover biomethane

 

In regions, renewable energies go hand in hand with a protected environment

If sourcing, exploiting and distributing renewable energies revitalizes local ecosystems, it is also an opportunity to protect them.

French people, renewables & biodiversity

Committed to the total decarbonisation of its activities by 2045, ENGIE remains just as determined to protect the environment in the context of its activities. Renewable energies are an essential lever in this ambition for the climate and biodiversity - and the people of France have understood this.

Renewable energies create jobs and promote inclusiveness

Without a doubt, renewable energies and the solutions that deploy them are the future of our energy systems. With them, new professions are created, for all and in the heart of our territories.

Fulfilling jobs of tomorrow in renewable energies

With the development around renewable energies, certain professions are evolving and others are coming to light. There are even some jobs that we do not yet suspect. It is in the best interest of large companies to provide the best possible support for this professional transition so that they can benefit from the dynamic that new “green jobs” can offer, and be committed to a professional life that best meets these new goals. Discover how!

6 questions to better understand the place of women in energy

Despite a world population that is almost half female, women are poorly represented in scientific fields. The figures are quite enlightening: 3% of graduates in information and communication technologies, 17 Nobel Prizes in physics, chemistry or medicine (572 have been awarded to men)1. The energy sector is no exception to this unequal situation, which concerns many countries, regardless of their level of development, and has repercussions on the job market. Learn more...
