Ted Jacob Engineering Group and Green Technologies have announced the merger of the two companies, effective from June 18, 2018, with Green Technologies becoming part of Ted Jacob Engineering Group.

Established in Canada in 1997 as Green Technologies Inc, the company was subsequently established in Dubai in 2004 as Green Technologies FZCO. Since then it has led the implementation of sustainability and LEED in the Middle East, delivering 665 LEED-certified buildings to date, a statement from TJEG said.

It added that Green Technologies has been a specialist engineering consultancy firm, providing engineering services that range from retrofitting of existing buildings, to improving its energy efficiency and operating performance, design and retrofitting of district cooling plants and the developing of low energy to zero energy buildings.

“The ethos of both companies, based on professionalism, innovation, and commitment to engineering excellence is a winning combination to deliver greater projects to its current and future Clients,” said Mario Seneviratne, director at Green Technologies.

“The merger of Green Technologies into Ted Jacob Engineering Group will greatly expand and augment our team’s ability to not only continue to provide excellent service to our customers but to incorporate expertise and specialisation in sustainability and implementation of LEED and Net Zero Energy design,” TJEG added in the statement.

Ted Jacob Engineering Group is an international engineering design consultancy committed to deliver sustainable design and serving customer needs through the application of innovative technologies. It was founded in 1985 in California, USA, and opened its Dubai branch in 2012 through the acquisition of a strong engineering team that has operated in the Middle East since 1970.
