The development of energy solutions has been a pillar of VINCI’s strategy since the early 2000s. This focus has spurred very strong growth for VINCI Energies, which is well positioned to address the energy and digital transitions. The business line is also steadily expanding its geographical coverage and range of expertise through dynamic external growth. In 2025, it acquired approximately 30 new companies, mainly outside France.
VINCI’s expansion in energy solutions reached a new level with the acquisition of Cobra IS, the former multi-technical services division of Spanish group ACS, at the end of 2021. With its strong foothold in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America and a solid reputation for delivering large EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) projects worldwide, Cobra IS is highly complementary to VINCI Energies.
Drawing on Cobra IS’s expertise, VINCI is also developing a portfolio of renewable energy production and transmission assets (mainly photovoltaic power stations), applying a disciplined approach.
Thanks to VINCI Energies and Cobra IS, VINCI is now a global player operating across the energy-related infrastructure and services value chain. It leverages its expertise in energy and mobility infrastructure, industry, building solutions and information technology to help its customers around the world work towards their emissions reduction and digital transformation goals.
