Discover Blue Pearl

THE BLUE PEARL PROJECT

The Blue Pearl project was initiated by a group of experienced executives from the energy sector eager to develop a European platform for B2B energy services (covering Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Central Europe).

The Blue Pearl project aims to bring together complementary small and medium size companies (SMEs) in energy services to offer more comprehensive solutions, with genuine long-term energy  performance commitments and with the ability to finance equipment on behalf of customers.

The ambition is to create an alternative player, influential thanks to its shared expertise, financially sound, and at the same time very responsive and close to its customers, by preserving the operational autonomy of the companies joining our project.

The project involves the share capital acquisition of local and dynamic enterprises with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, via the support of an infrastructure fund.

Owners and managers of acquired companies continue to manage their business and serve their customers, while actively contributing to the development of the Blue Pearl transformation project.

In this way, we provide our customers with the strength of a large group combined with the proximity and responsiveness of a SME.
