A New Ecosystem is taking shape - Akonovia x tbmaestro Group

tbmaestro Group and Akonovia Join Forces to Create and Integrated Asset Management Advisory Offering for the French Market 

 

Paris, 17 June 2026 — At a time when environmental and economic challenges are reshaping the future of asset management, tbmaestro Group and Akonovia are bringing together their complementary expertise to provide public and private organisations with comprehensive, end-to-end support. This combined approach helps organisations make better-informed decisions and optimise asset performance throughout the entire lifecycle, while addressing energy efficiency and decarbonisation objectives. 

Together, the two organisations are establishing a first-of-its-kind integrated offering for asset managers, covering the full value chain — from strategic asset planning and management to decarbonisation pathways and energy performance optimisation. This integrated approach draws on extensive expertise across both the French and Québec markets and is supported by a team of 170 professionals based in Paris, Lyon, Montréal and Sherbrooke.

 

"By combining our expertise with that of Akonovia, we are able to offer an integrated approach to energy efficiency and asset management. This complementary expertise enables us to support organisations more effectively as they navigate increasingly complex technical, strategic and operational challenges in rapidly evolving markets," said Claire Duclos, Managing Director of tbmaestro France. 

 

"Building energy performance is no longer simply a technical issue; it has become a strategic and economic imperative. This partnership enables our clients in both France and Québec to gain a deeper understanding of their assets, enhance performance and make more informed decisions in a rapidly changing environment," said Philippe Hudon, President of Akonovia.

 

A Major Regulatory and Economic Challenge for the French Market 

The building sector accounts for nearly 45%¹ of France’s final energy consumption and represents one of the key drivers of decarbonisation identified by public authorities. Against this backdrop, asset managers — including local authorities, social housing providers and other organisations — face growing requirements related to the Eco Énergie Tertiaire scheme, RE2020 regulations, ESG reporting obligations and carbon neutrality targets by 2050. 

The strategic alignment between tbmaestro Group and Akonovia directly addresses these challenges through a structured and comprehensive advisory approach. It enables organisations to transform regulatory requirements into tangible opportunities to improve performance and enhance the long-term value of their assets.
