In 2002, during the Johannesburg Earth Summit, Jacques Chirac, at that time President of the French Republic, declared: “Our house burns and we look elsewhere.”

In 2016, the Paris agreement signed on the occasion of the Paris Climate Conference (COP21) marked a real international awareness. The main objective of this first universal agreement is to keep the increase in global temperature well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The challenge is huge.

ELECTRONIC AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS AT THE HEART OF THE DISCUSSIONS

In addition to the necessary evolution of their energy mix in order to increase the share of “clean” energies (solar, wind, etc.), utilities must increase their investments in technologies to optimize the efficiency of their network. Here, we are talking about the smart grid.

At the industrial level, the players are obliged to invest in new technologies to move towards more connectivity, with ever more robotized production processes.

Electronic and software systems are at the heart of all these developments.

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF ELECTRONIC AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS IN THE FIELDS OF ENERGY AND INDUSTRY

For nearly 20 years, ELSYS America has been supporting energy and industry players in the design and development of custom electronic and software systems. We specialize in electronics, embedded software, integration and testing. In addition, we are expanding our areas of expertise to mechanical engineering and application software development with our sister companies MECAGINE and AViSTO.
