Energy and Services
Energy and services activities offer ETDE attractive
medium-term opportunities in the main countries in
which it operates (France, the UK, Switzerland and
Canada), especially because of growing demand
for energy efficiency. In the short term, the market is
more uncertain because of fierce competition and
a potential drop in public-sector orders.
Bouygues Construction’s energy and services
subsidiary ETDE the fourth-largest player in the
segment, after Vinci (Vinci Energies, Cegelec,
Vinci Facilities), Spie and Eiffage (Clemessy,
Crystal, Forclum).
ETDE contributed €1,530 million to Bouygues
Construction's consolidated sales in 2011, 1%
less than in 2010 (€1,547 million). ETDE has three
business lines: network infrastructure (50% of
sales), electrical and HVAC engineering (26%) and
facilities management (24%).

the City of Paris that includes an energy performance
commitment. It began three contracts won
in 2010, including a 20-year contract in Thiais, a
suburb of Paris, with a commitment to cut electricity

south of Paris, that promises a 35% energy saving,
100% green energy, electric vehicles and a carbon
