FEV energy + resources – New brand for innovative engineering and consulting services in a sustainable energy industry
Aachen, January 2025 – FEV has restructured its service portfolio for companies in the energy industry on their way to a sustainable future. With its FEV energy + resources brand, the engineering services provider is pursuing a holistic approach and combines its extensive technological know-how with expertise in strategic management consulting. In this way, FEV supports the development and dissemination of new technologies as well as the planning and implementation of individual sustainability strategies. Thus, customers are empowered to make their business future-proof and ecologically sustainable and to actively drive forward the energy transition.
“The new name FEV energy + resources replaces the previous brand FEV energy, which already stood for innovative and sustainable energy solutions. We are expanding the existing range of services, underlining our holistic and technology-open approach,” said Dr. Patrick Hupperich, president and CEO of FEV Group. With the new brand, the company is making clearly visible to the public that the focus is not only on the technologies but also on the energy carriers, sources and their life cycles in order to speed up the “green” transformation of the energy industry.
“FEV’s solutions for the future energy industry are always cross-sectoral, considering the mutual influences of individual fields. Our global team combines more than 45 years of experience and innovation leadership in energy and resource topics,” said Johannes Buchmann, Group Vice President FEV energy + resources. Founded in 1978, the FEV global master brand stands for innovation leadership and responsible action in the best interest of people and the environment. Its core competencies are the development of innovative and energy-efficient (e-) propulsion solutions, battery systems and sustainable integrated vehicle concepts. These are complemented by expertise in the fields of circular economy, recycling, life cycles, water and waste management and CO2 footprint analysis.
When it comes to the transfer of know-how from mobility to stationary applications by FEV energy + resources, the development of batteries and electric machines plays a crucial role. However, the area of sustainable fuels, such as hydrogen and its derivation via electrolyzer, is also a focal point. Successful projects show how the company is supporting the transformation to a sustainable economy and driving forward green technologies. These include a plant for methanol production using wind and solar power in North Africa, the production of synthetic fuels in the EU project DeCarTrans which is coordinated by FEV, and the development of a mobile charging system for electric vehicles.
FEV energy + resources has access to a variety of innovative tools for its global projects. One of them is “CycleBat”, a tool developed by FEV Consulting for forecasting the costs of batteries along the entire value chain. The FEV Group’s management consultancy was recently recognized for this with the Sustainability Award from the Automobiltechnische und Motortechnische Zeitschrift (ATZ/MTZ) published by the prestigious Springer Nature publishing house and the management consultancy Arthur D. Little.
