About Entac

Strategic consulting for change in the energy industry

The German energy industry is facing fundamental change: conventional power generation sites are being decommissioned and new generation capacity is emerging. Hamburg-based Entac GmbH supports you at precisely this intersection.

We bring in-depth technical understanding, decades of experience in leadership positions and a strong network in the energy industry. This makes us a reliable partner when it comes to making and implementing complex site decisions.

  • Development of infrastructure for the siting of energy-intensive facilities
  • Transformation of existing generation sites
  • Creation of ‘Powered Land’ – land for the energy future
  • Formation and development of project companies
  • Legal and permitting support

Why now?

The economy is facing a systemic shift.

Conventional generation plants are being decommissioned and sites need to be rethought – and this process requires expertise that brings together engineering, law and strategy.

Decommissioning is on the rise

Conventional power generation sites are progressively being taken off the grid. Decommissioning is not a simple technical procedure – it is a multi-layered process of permitting, workforce reduction, hazard removal and reuse planning.

Transformation requires strategy

Developing a former power plant or industrial site into ‘Powered Land’ – with grid connection, permits and technical layout – requires interdisciplinary expertise that is rarely found under one roof.

People need to be brought along

Every transformation affects people. Involving the co-determination partners at works council and collective bargaining level early and comprehensively is not a formality – it is the key to project success.

Services

What we do for you

Four areas of expertise, with a focus on creating value.

Decommissioning & Transformation

We develop decommissioning concepts for conventional generation sites – from the closure notification and technical concepts through to hazard removal and preparation for demolition. In doing so, we assess the reuse potential and develop scenarios for subsequent use.

  • Closure notification
  • Workforce plan
  • Hazard removal
  • Site assessment

Greenfield & Powered Land

We develop utilisation concepts for new energy sites – so-called ‘Powered Land’ sites. With our network of grid operators, land developers and infrastructure project developers, we lay the foundations for future-proof energy parks.

  • Powered Land
  • Energy park development
  • Network of grid operators
  • Land development

Project Management

We set up efficient project structures, take on project leadership roles and steer interdisciplinary teams – including across company boundaries. Clear KPIs and reporting lines ensure transparency.

  • Project management
  • KPI development
  • Interdisciplinary teams
  • M&A support

Change Management & Strategy

Organisational change only succeeds when people are brought along. We support you with workforce adjustments, co-determination processes and the realignment of business models – with expertise and a sense of proportion.

  • Change management
  • Co-determination
  • Corporate strategy
  • Restructuring

Fields of activity

Where we get involved

Entac supports you in a wide range of starting situations – from an operating power plant to disused industrial land.

Decommissioning and Site Transformation

At conventional power generation sites that are being decommissioned, as well as at existing industrial and energy sites that are to be converted and repositioned, we prepare technical concepts, shape permitting processes and, together with you, implement the necessary workforce adjustments. We develop technical and economic utilisation concepts for reuse.

  • Conventional
  • Decommissioning
  • Dismantling

Greenfield · Powered Land

Open land and sites close to the grid on which new energy parks are to be built. We develop utilisation concepts and draw on our network of grid operators and land developers.

  • Wind
  • Solar
  • H₂

Corporate Transactions

M&A processes, formation of project companies and restructurings in the energy sector. We support the purchase, sale and development of project rights and companies.

  • M&A
  • Project company
  • Strategy

Our approach

Structured. Analytical. Solution-oriented.

Every situation is unique – our approach is not. We work within proven structures that are at the same time flexible enough to respond to the specific requirements of your project.

  1. Analysis & Site Assessment

    We capture the technical, economic and permitting parameters of your site and structure the starting position.

  2. Concept Development & Strategy

    We develop tailored solutions – from transformation concepts and project organisations to utilisation scenarios.

  3. Implementation Support & Project Leadership

    We support implementation at an operational level – as project lead, facilitator or strategic sparring partner, depending on your needs.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The key questions about working with Entac GmbH – answered briefly.

Who does Entac GmbH work for?
We support owners, operators, investors and project companies – wherever a site is being transformed, decommissioned or repositioned. Our work is not limited to traditional energy companies.
What does ‘Powered Land’ mean?
‘Powered Land’ describes land with existing or developable energy infrastructure – such as a high-capacity grid connection. Such sites are particularly suitable for new generation and use, such as renewable energy, storage or energy-intensive developments.
Do you also support the decommissioning itself?
Yes. We develop decommissioning concepts for conventional power generation sites – from the closure notification, workforce plans and hazard removal through to preparing for demolition or dismantling and assessing the reuse potential.
Do you take on project management?
Yes. We set up efficient project organisations, take on project leadership roles and steer interdisciplinary teams – including across companies. Clear KPIs ensure transparency, and we also support M&A processes.
How do you support change management?
We support organisational change holistically: workforce adjustments, co-determination processes at works council and collective bargaining level, and the realignment of business models – with expertise and a sense of proportion.
Which region do you work in?
We are based in Hamburg and work throughout Germany – wherever sites are being transformed or repositioned.
How does working together begin?
With a no-obligation initial conversation and a first assessment of your site. This is followed by concept development and strategy and – depending on your needs – operational implementation support. Write to us and we will usually get back to you within 24 hours.
