YIT and RWE Energiedienstleistungen join forces in the field of energy contracting

YIT Germany GmbH and RWE Energiedienstleistungen GmbH have signed a strategic collaboration agreement 2 July 2012. The two companies will combine their areas of expertise as part of a premium partnership. This will allow them to respond promptly and comprehensively to technically demanding customer queries in the field of energy supply contracting.

Prompted by the ongoing transition in the energy sector, the concept of contracting has taken on a key role in both economic and environmental terms. Energy-efficient technologies enable the client to offer both affordable prices and eco-friendly energy.

By collaborating with RWE Energiedienstleistungen, YIT is expanding its portfolio of eServiFlex concept services. This modularly structured service package plays a key role in increasing energy efficiency and reducing energy costs in commercial and industrial properties. Its individual elements range from efficiency inspections of technical systems and ongoing optimisation of operations, to energy saving contracting.

– When it comes to energy services, project success requires the combination of several areas of specialist expertise, explains Norbert Neuhaus, Head of Sales at RWE Energiedienstleistungen. – In YIT, we now have a skilled partner who has unrivalled technical experience in building technology and who, like us, is active throughout Germany. This collaboration ideally complements our range of energy supply services.
