Urban Energy Solutions

As cities expand, so does the demand for energy – and the need for the most efficient methods of generation, distribution and storage. Changes in the way people and industries use energy are putting pressure on cities themselves, as well as the wider environment.

Our unique approach

Energy is the dominant contributor to climate change, accounting for around 60% of total global greenhouse gas emissions. As we address the climate crisis, particularly following the stark warnings in the IPCC report, sustainable and renewable urban energy solutions have never been more critical.

Integrating carbon and sustainability expertise from across the business, our urban energy team is focused on a holistic approach to planning and designing net zero buildings, energy supplies and transport systems. An approach which is strengthened through strong working relationships with local authorities as we work together to transform their energy strategies.

The first of its kind in the engineering sector, our team draws on world-leading expertise from across Sweco Group in the areas of district heating, climate change resilience and parametric modelling.

Together with our clients and the collective knowledge of our 22,000 engineers, consultants and other specialists, we co-create solutions to address urbanisation, capture the power of digitalisation, and make our societies more sustainable.​ With international multi-disciplinary teams, we can call on the right insight and technical capability at the right time from across Buildings, Infrastructure, Advisory & Planning and Compliance.​
