Val d’Oise, a French department located in the Ile-de-France region, which generates half of the country’s turnover from eco-activities, has a number of assets for the development of eco-industries: the presence of leading group in traditional sectors, a high concentration of innovative SMEs, major public and private R&D clusters, and a wide range of business lines (consultancy, engineering, services).

Recycling and decontamination

Val d’Oise houses major environment-related facilities. The nano-filtration water treatment plant in Méry-sur-Oise (SEDIF) is the world leader in the production, treatment and distribution of drinking water sector. The Auror’environnement waste treatment and incineration plant in Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône (Veolia Propreté) has high-performance equipment, and the Plessis-Gassot biogas plant (Veolia-Dalkia-Clark Energy) is internationally recognised for its innovative processes in terms of waste reprocessing.

All eco-activities sectors are represented in Val d’Oise (waste, water, air, soil, energy). Extract-Ecoterres, a subsidiary of Vinci Construction France, which specialises in soil clean-up, has recently set up a European multimodal platform in Bruyères-sur-Oise, just like Biogénie Europe, a division of EnGlobe Corp (an internationally renowned Canadian group), which has invested €7 million and created 10 jobs for its new soil treatment centre. 300,000 tonnes will be biologically treated over a surface area of 4.5 hectares. Hytec Industrie, in Cergy- Pontoise, is an engineering company that specialises in the design and development of water treatment facilities. 

Significant energy savings

Val d’Oise has a high concentration of extremely diverse SMEs and SMIs in environment- related areas, including in sectors of the future (consultancy firms, engineering, recycling of common and uncommon waste, recovery of metals, etc.). The territory is also home to leaders such as GDF Suez, which is setting up a wood heating system adopted by Aéroports de Paris ( Paris Airports Authorithy) to heat Roissy-CDG Airport.

Stakeholders in sustainable development

The Veolia training centre welcomes hundreds of trainees and over 10,000 interns at Jouy-Le-Moutier, in the Château d’Ecancourt area, and offers 16 professional qualifications ranging from vocational training certificates to Master’s degrees in water, cleanliness, transport, and energy.

The University of Cergy-Pontoise offers a Master’s in civil engineering «Smart buildings, energy efficiency».

This training, as well as the investments made by companies, households, and elected representatives, has become the daily responses and reactions to the increasing scarcity of resources and climate change.

Various different competitiveness clusters operate in the territory: Advancity (for sustainable cities and mobility), Mov’eo (for clean and smart vehicles and mobility) and Elastopole (for rubber and polymers).

The Paris and Ile-de-France region Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI Paris IDF) coordinates the “Éco’Durable” PLATO network in Val d’Oise, which enables SMEs and large enterprises with an interest in the sustainable economy to share their experiences and know-how.

It also runs the Network of Environment Managers (RME) in Val d’Oise and Yvelines. This network unites companies committed to environmental management around joint projects to anticipate regulatory changes and implement concrete environmental solutions.

Le Val d’Oise, département d’une région, l’Île-de-France, qui réalise la moitié du chiffre d’affaires national des éco-activités, dispose de nombreux atouts pour le développement des éco-industries : présence de groupes leaders sur les secteurs traditionnels, tissu dense de PME innovantes, importants pôles privés et publics de R&D et forte diversité de métiers (conseil, ingénierie, services)..

Recyclage et dépollution

Le Val d’Oise accueille des équipements majeurs liés à l’environnement. L’usine de nano-filtration des eaux de Méry-sur-Oise (SEDIF) est leader mondial dans le secteur de la production, du traitement et de la distribution d’eau potable. Le centre de traitement et d’incinération des déchets Auror’environnement de Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône (Veolia Propreté) possède des équipements très performants et l’usine de méthanisation du Plessis-Gassot (Veolia-Dalkia-Clark Energy) est reconnue à l’international pour ses procédés innovants en termes de retraitement des déchets.

Tous les secteurs des éco-activités sont représentés dans le Val d’Oise (déchets, eau, air, sols, énergies). Extract-Ecoterres, filiale de Vinci Construction France, spécialisée dans la dépollution des sols, vient de s’implanter sur la plateforme multimodale de niveau européen de Bruyères-sur-Oise, tout comme Biogénie Europe, division d’EnGlobe Corp (groupe canadien mondialement connu), qui a investi 7 millions d’euros et créé 10 emplois pour son nouveau centre de traitement des terres. Sur une surface de 4,5 hectares, 300 000 tonnes seront biologiquement traitées. Hytec Industrie, à Cergy-Pontoise, est une société d’ingénierie spécialisée dans la conception et la réalisation d’installations de traitement des eaux.
