Bureau Veritas has taken a decisive step in its LEAP I 28 strategy by signing two key acquisition agreements that expand its presence in the clean energy and urban infrastructure sectors. This double transaction boosts its positioning as a leading technical player in strategic markets with high growth projections.
Renewable energy expansion in Spain
On the one hand, the integration of the Spanish company Sólida represents a relevant move in the context of the energy transition. Sólida, based in Madrid, has established itself as a benchmark in engineering and consulting services for solar, wind and storage projects. Its experience includes almost 2,500 projects in more than 50 countries, totaling more than 220 GW of renewable capacity.
The transaction allows Bureau Veritas to expand its technical capacity and offer a comprehensive platform of capital expenditure (CAPEX) solutions, reinforcing its role in supporting clients during the transformation of the global energy system.
In parallel, the incorporation of London Building Control (LBC), a British entity specialized in site verification, consolidates Bureau Veritas in the construction and infrastructure segment. With more than 14,000 projects managed each year in the UK, LBC brings an expert team of registered inspectors and a nationwide network of offices.
This acquisition strengthens Bureau Veritas Bureau Veritas in regulatory compliance and quality control services for both new and renovated buildings, responding to the growing demand for specialized technical solutions in complex urban environments.
Both integrations are aligned with the pillars of the LEAP I 28 strategy, focused on sustainable growth and operational excellence. According to Hinda Gharbi, Group CEO, these actions reflect “the ambition to lead the shift to a more efficient and resilient built and energy environment.”
