October 22 – World Energy Day

The BOVIS Group, a key partner for the construction and energy sectors. World Energy Day: celebrating innovation and energy sustainability

On October 22, the world celebrates World Energy Day. Established to raise awareness of the importance of access to safe, clean and sustainable energy, this day highlights the organisations contributing to the energy transition and the development of essential infrastructure.

On this occasion, the BOVIS Group reaffirms its commitment to companies in the energy and construction sectors through its Construction & Energy Centre of Excellence, dedicated to transport, handling, storage and installation solutions for heavy, fragile and high-value technical equipment.

The BOVIS Group’s expertise serving the energy sector

With more than 45 years of experience, the BOVIS Group supports major players in the energy industry — including energy producers, installers, integrators, and industrial and commercial companies — in delivering high-value technical projects.

Our mission is to facilitate the logistics and installation of energy infrastructure while ensuring the safety, performance and environmental compliance of every operation.

Transport and installation of electrical equipment

In the field of electrical engineering, our teams provide comprehensive handling of energy equipment, from collection to installation and commissioning on site.

Our services include, in particular:

• Transport and handling of generator sets, transformers, rectifier substations, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and electrical cabinets.
• Safe removal of transformers containing pyralene, in accordance with current environmental regulations.
• Logistics management for wind farm components, including blades, generators and control systems.
• Precise positioning of sensitive equipment, even in areas with restricted access, such as ramps, hatches, rooftops and basements.

Thanks to our state-of-the-art handling equipment and highly qualified teams, we carry out even the most complex projects with precision and efficiency.

Solutions for HVAC engineering and energy efficiency

The BOVIS Group actively contributes to the energy transition by supporting companies specialising in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC):

• Transport and installation of heat pumps, industrial boilers and air-conditioning systems for commercial and industrial buildings.
• Delivery and installation of commercial refrigeration equipment for industrial facilities and large retailers.
• Installation of ventilation and air-handling units in metro systems, tunnels and high-occupancy buildings.

Our operations ensure optimal energy efficiency while complying with the strictest safety and environmental standards.

Tailor-made solutions for construction and major projects

The BOVIS Group’s Construction & Energy Centre of Excellence provides logistics and technical solutions tailored to the needs of the most demanding construction sites:

• Delivery and installation of street furniture, signage, structural frameworks, prefabricated modules and construction materials.
• Management of delivery schedules in line with construction progress.
• Specialist handling in complex environments.
• Compliance with deadlines and safety commitments.

Our approach is based on integrated logistics planning: we receive, store, prepare and deliver components in the required installation sequence, in close coordination with our clients’ teams.

This method ensures a continuous, controlled flow of materials, reducing disruptions and minimising time lost on site.

Comprehensive and sustainable logistics: transport, storage and reverse logistics

To support the growth of energy and construction projects, the BOVIS Group offers end-to-end logistics solutions built around three main pillars.

1. Secure and flexible storage

• 40 logistics sites across Europe, including 34 in France.
• More than 302,000 m² of storage space.
• Divisible, secure facilities adapted to every type of equipment.

• Tailor-made inspection, preparation and redelivery systems.

   

2. End-to-end logistics management

Our logistics platforms handle the receipt, inspection, preparation and delivery of equipment according to a predefined schedule.

Each delivery is optimised to match the progress of the construction project, minimising unnecessary movements and maximising productivity.

3. Reverse logistics and equipment recovery

As part of our commitment to environmental responsibility, we offer collection and recovery solutions for end-of-life equipment.

This circular approach helps reduce the carbon footprint and promotes the reuse of resources.

The BOVIS Group’s operational excellence

Thanks to its in-house engineering department, the BOVIS Group can design tailor-made handling and lifting plans, including:

• 3D simulations.
• Risk assessments.
• Site-specific safety procedures.

Our in-depth knowledge of access constraints — ramps, hatches, façades, basements and rooftops — combined with our high-performance equipment fleet, including cranes, forklifts, lifting platforms, conveyors and specialised vehicles, enables us to carry out the most technically demanding operations safely.

Together towards safer and more sustainable energy

On October 22, in celebration of World Energy Day, the BOVIS Group reaffirms its commitment to energy performance and the transition towards a more sustainable future.

Our ambition is to continue supporting our partners in the successful delivery of their projects, with logistics and technical solutions that meet the challenges of the 21st century.

The Construction & Energy Centre of Excellence in figures

• More than 45 years of experience in specialist handling.
• 40 storage sites across Europe.
• 302,000 m² of logistics space.

• Hundreds of successful projects in electrical engineering, HVAC and industrial infrastructure.
