Translations for the energy sector
Translations for companies operating in the energy sector developing technology to save, produce and store energy. We can help you to translate everything from manuals and tender documents to marketing material and user documentation into more than 40 languages.
Translations about energy production and energy efficiency
The ongoing transition to a fossil-free, greener society is driving a growing need for energy-efficient products and smart technology. Companies that make heat pumps, solar cells, windows, insulation material and energy storage and operating systems are gaining new markets – which creates new challenges when it comes to communication.
In order to sell, instal, use or procure products on a global market, you need documentation and communication in the right language. That doesn’t just mean translation. It also means conveying clear information about functionality, energy-efficiency and climate benefits in a way that works on each local market. That’s what we do here at Novoterm – we make sure that the language works in the place where it is going to be used, whatever the target group or market.
Our expertise in the energy sector
Energy efficiency in buildings
Many companies that sell products originally designed for Scandinavian markets and the Nordic climate have now found new customers in other countries where energy efficiency has become a growing trend as a consequence of rising energy prices and the green transition. Things like triple-glazed windows, modern insulation material, ventilation and heating systems are all in demand – energy efficiency in buildings is a growth market.
Production of renewable energy
Solar cells, wind power, geothermal energy, wave energy and efficient hydropower all play a key role in the green transition. In this area, communication often involves describing complex technology as well as making sure any climate and financial benefits of these types of long-term investments are made clear and aimed at everyone from the individual consumer to decision-makers at the highest level.
Smart control systems for electricity consumption
As electricity prices are rising and consumption patterns are changing, controlling energy use has become increasingly important.
Technology designed to control things such as lighting, heating or charging at specific times – such as when prices are at their lowest – gives people the opportunity to be flexible and make savings.
Energy storage
Battery solutions, hydrogen storage and pumped storage make it possible for electricity to be used efficiently even when generation is uneven. The pace of innovation in this area is fast and the regulations are often specific to each country, which – when combined with the technical terminology needed – places high demands for accuracy in all communication, whatever the language required.
What kind of energy sector translations can we help with?
The energy sector is both gigantic and global. In such a fast-developing field with technical breadth, ever-evolving regulations that need to be kept up with and various target groups, communication needs to be clear, accurate and tailored to suit the purpose for which it is intended. This communication can include many different types of documents ranging from technical manuals to procurement documents and contracts.
Examples of the types of texts we can translate include
Extensive experience of energy and climate-related communication.
We have translated a large number of sustainability reports and climate-related texts over the years. These projects demand a standard structure and the use of established terminology, but the tone of any translation and adapting it to suit the intended market are also hugely important. We have gained an in-depth understanding of these issues as well as having extensive experience of this sector.
We bring all of this into every new project. Our project managers hand pick translators who understand the subject area, have mastered the established terminology and who – of course – translate into their native language. When the content involves energy, the environment and the climate, the language used needs to be as precise as the technology it is describing.
