Our Values

We at The Binding Energy are proud to operate with strong values guiding our actions and decisions. These values are embodied in the acronym NICE, which stands for No-nonsense, Independent, Competent and Enthusiastic.

N: A no-nonsense approach towards its clients means that we are straightforward and honest in our dealings with clients, partners, and each other. We help our clients continuously improve their services and products in a critical and questioning way, but in a constructive atmosphere.

I: Our independence allows us to think creatively and make decisions that are in the best interests of our clients. We have no external investors, and can develop our own independent view on nuclear projects. This is quite unique in Belgium (and abroad). When it comes to safety, independence is the best possible position to guarantee an objective analysis.

C: TBE’s competence is evident in the quality of our work and the expertise of our team. We are a knowledge-based company with a ton of practical on-the-field experience. TBE wants to pick-up the ageing knowledge in the nuclear field. We base our conclusions on facts and figures. Our team members are motivated to continuously increase their expertise in external trainings and workshops.

E: And last but not least, we are a dynamic and enthusiastic young team, sharing already more than 50 years of experience, bringing an invigorating company profile to the nuclear market. Our company spirit is warm and empathic, we question each other in a constructive way, as we question our clients.
