Energy recovery – unrivalled experience

SYSTRA has significant experience in the waste to energy market, delivering multiple projects over the past decade. We provide a truly integrated solution, delivering multi-disciplinary designs from the outset. The success of our projects is based on our in-depth understanding of client requirements at every stage of the project lifecycle, from concept to operations and maintenance. We enable close coordination between civil works design and process engineering design, which is critical to the success of complex waste-to-energy projects. We also apply our risk-management expertise to deliver designs that are efficient, proven and innovative.

Projects in action

Renewables – developing the UK’s carbon-free energy infrastructure

Our specialists support the development of multiple renewable energy projects, including wind and solar farms, biomass plants, marine and tidal schemes, energy storage and microgrid projects. We help clients to gain regulatory approvals, and secure suitable financing for these long-term projects. We develop technical solutions for the different renewable technologies, electricity transmission and infrastructure services, ensuring system reliability and resilience. Our project planning and management expertise ensures we deliver renewable energy projects on time, within budget and to the highest standards of safety and quality.

Hydrogen – building reliable new infrastructure safely and efficiently

We help clients to evaluate the performance and reliability of different hydrogen technologies to determine the optimum solution for their needs. The UK’s hydrogen infrastructure is in its infancy, but SYSTRA is at the forefront of new developments, helping to coordinate integration among stakeholders throughout the supply chain – from hydrogen production to fuel cell deployment. Our team helps clients assess the feasibility of hydrogen projects, evaluate solutions, develop business plans, and manage safety and risk.

We’d love to help with your next project
