Siveco China proudly supports the 2nd French Eco-City Club in China Seminar
On November 4, the French Eco-City Club in China, which gathers leading companies involved in sustainable urban development, held its general assembly, followed by a public seminar on the theme of “Solutions for a Low-Carbon City”. Siveco China chose to support the event as main sponsor, to showcase the company’s long involvement in the Chinese environmental and energy market.
Siveco China has been an active member of the Eco-City Club since its creation. Bruno Lhopiteau, Managing Director, took part in the general assembly together with representatives from major French infrastructure companies such as EDF, Suez, Veolia, Keolis, AREP etc. and French Embassy officials. The purpose of the meeting was to agree on the club’s directions and define activities for the coming year.
The “Solutions for a Low-Carbon City” conference that followed was aimed at decision makers from Chinese utilities, municipal governments and companies, and leaders of the French community in China. French Minister Counsellor for Economic Affairs Jean-Marc Fenet and Wuxi National High Tech Zone’s Deputy Secretary of the Party Working Committee Hong Yanwei, opened the event. Various Chinese and French experts then explored the topic of the Low-Carbon City, with two roundtables on “A low energy city that respects the environment” and “An attractive, resilient and smart city”. French Ambassador Laurent Bili closed the session. The conference was followed by a cocktail and networking session around the Siveco China booth.
Siveco China’s presence at the event was highly visible. Managing Director Bruno Lhopiteau spoke at the general assembly and exchanged views with many old friends and clients during the networking session.
A large screen displayed Siveco China’s introduction and the logos of our utility customers. At the booth, our Energy EPC and Marketing teams were in attendance throughout the event. Our aim was to share real case studies in China, rather than theoretical solutions from abroad, to talk about how Siveco China has helped optimize the lifecycle of Chinese infrastructures over the past 20 years and explain how Smart O&M can support the Low-Carbon City.
Siveco China has a long track record providing Smart O&M solutions and Asset Management consulting services to optimize the lifecycle of utilities and infrastructures and to ensure regulatory compliance. Clients include Capital Eco-pro Group, Beikong, Everbright, Hong Kong Environment Protection Department, Drainage Services Department, Yingde Gases, Baosteel Gases, etc. We would like to thank the French Eco-City Club in China, the French Embassy, the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in China, for arranging this high profile event and giving us this great opportunity to share experience with friends in the industry.
