Electrabel Suez

Electrabel is determined to pursue its development in Europe whilst remaining the leader in Benelux. It is constantly improving its performance in all of its business segments and at all levels. Whatever the country or the customer segment concerned, its objective is to provide its customers with quality local products and services. This applies all the more so in Belgium, as the company's home base.

To achieve this, it forms alliances with local partners and draws on its strength as a major European company. In the production field, Electrabel intends to reinforce its profile as a 'low cost producer', in particular by using its trading assets.

Finally, the company is guided by four constant values: customer-orientation, performance, caring for staff and a sense of responsibility.
