Energy & Environment
Are you facing new challenges from high energy prices, supply chain issues and an uncertain outlook for the future? Do you feel the urge to rethink your portfolio or invest in sustainability? Governments are more explicitly engaging with the market and circularity is high on the agenda.
Since our start in this sector in the early 1990s, we have seen the world of Energy & Environment change dramatically. More complex and competitive and facing new realities. We have helped numerous companies in the sector adapt in a timely manner and take new paths.
Today's issues are challenging and the (financial) stakes enormous. With Russia's invasion of Ukraine, energy security and independence are high on the agenda and governments are pushing for conservation and sustainability. Energy is increasingly being generated locally, close to the end user, and with ever more attention to energy innovations in the built environment. Sustainability also plays an important role in industry, and there is increasing attention across the sector for digitization. Reuse of materials is an important theme.
At JBR, we like to create overview and insight and believe in the combination of sensible and refreshing thinking.

Watch this film with our take on these dilemmas.
- Who is contributing to the investments for the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy? Fossil fuels will eventually have to be replaced, and the current unstable energy situation makes the need for this all the more obvious
- What is the optimal mix in renewable sources and what do we do with the existing infrastructure? How do we deal with the fluctuating output of renewable resources?
- What role can charging stations and storage systems (batteries) play in helping to balance the grid? What is the revenue model in this regard?
- Electricity consumption is increasing and generation is increasingly decentralized. How do we adapt the infrastructure of the current grid to this, or are local smart grids the answer?
- Despite the high demand and trend for renewable energy, investments in fossil energy sources will remain necessary in the coming years. Fossil sources will remain an important part of the energy mix until 2050.
