Mission statement
BET is a leading consultancy for the energy and
water industries that was founded in 1988 by
Dr. Wolfgang Zander and Dr. Michael Ritzau in
Aachen. BET draws upon an experienced team
of experts comprising more than 50 engineers,
industrial engineers and economists.
We stand for concepts that boost competition
and guarantee effective markets. The energy
and water industry fills an important focal position in our industrial society. We want to measure
up to the high standards of responsibility set by
this industry for society as a whole.
We advise our customers comprehensively.
Our work covers all the steps from the strategic concept to implementation. Jointly
with our cu-stomers, we work out innovative
and practicable solutions because we are
comprehensively proficient in all as-pects of
business economics, energy industry economics and also the technical fundamentals.
We enjoy our work.Our highly qualified
engineers, industrial engineers and economists develop the projects and solutions as
a team. This team-oriented and personally
responsible working style enhances the
motivation and creativity of our staff.
Distinct staff loyalty to BET forms the basis
for our trustful customer relationships and
continuity in our consulting activity.
In collaboration with our customers, we
wish to develop economically efficient, and
simultaneously, environmentally sustainable
solutions
in a world depending on increasingly scarce
resources.
The energy and water industry is our special
field. BET offers highly qualified consultancy
which covers the entire value added chain of the
energy and water industry: From production or
generation and regulated grid access to trading
and sales.
The consultancy topics cover over the following
areas:
>>

Company and plant evaluation
Process organisation and change management
Management and strategy consulting
Our broad customer base consists of municipal utilities, grid operators, energy traders,
de-centralised generators, large power plant
operators, cooperatives and energy intensive
industrial customers. Our politic consultancy
serves government authorities, ministries
and political decision-makers. Germany is
our core market. However we are increasingly
directing our attention to the European energy market.
We are independent. We see ourselves as a
neutral consultancy company for the energy industry, which is free from individual
interests. All BET shares are owned by the
managing directors and executive staff. As
a medium-sized consultancy company with
a flat hierarchy, we can react flexibly and
quickly to changing market conditions.
Our consulting is long-lived. A notable success factor at BET is our interdisciplinary
