Brussels, June 19, 2024 – IZEN, part of VINCI Energies since the end of 2019, will continue to operate under the international brand name Omexom from June 19 this year. Omexom, VINCI Energies’ brand dedicated to energy infrastructure, is a global provider of solutions for those who produce, transform and transport electricity.
IZEN, a specialist in renewable energy technologies, was acquired by VINCI Energies in 2019. After years of successful integration and collaboration, the time has come to take the next step within the group to further grow and develop IZEN’s expertise.
From June 19, 2024, IZEN will continue to operate under the brand name Omexom, VINCI Energies’ brand dedicated to energy infrastructure. However, this rebranding will not impact ongoing contracts, its corporate name or other legal information for existing IZEN customers.

“At VINCI Energies, we highly value sustainability. We continuously realize projects that contribute to improving people’s everyday lives and shaping the world of tomorrow.

IZEN’s activities will continue to operate within the Renewable Energies division. “It remains our mission to make high-quality renewable energy available to everyone,” says Bart Van Der Meersch, Managing Director Renewable Energies. “We are still striving for 100% smart energy.
