Our teams support companies with a wide range of audits and expert opinions - from industry and energy to infrastructure and sustainability.

We offer a wide range of services: In the field of hydrogen, TÜV NORD ensures that generation, storage and distribution systems can be safely and reliably integrated into existing energy and industrial systems. Modern energy systems such as wind and solar power plants and electricity grids are also thoroughly assessed - with the aim of ensuring their performance and safety.

In the energy sector, our range of services includes hydrogen technologies, energy storage systems, power grids and renewable and conventional energy systems. We inspect and assess generation, storage and distribution systems as well as wind and solar power plants to ensure their performance and safety.

Energy audits and efficiency analyses in accordance with DIN EN 16247 or ISO 50001 complete our range of services and support the optimisation of energy use.

In the field of railway technology, our expertise ensures safety on the rails: rail vehicles, signalling technology and infrastructure are comprehensively tested - from the initial safety assessment to final approval, both nationally and throughout Europe.

TÜV NORD is also a reliable partner in the construction industry - whether in the assessment of supporting structures, building materials or fire protection. Building inspections and monitoring on the construction site are also part of the range of services.

Through certifications and assessments according to ESG criteria or environmental management standards such as ISO 14001, we help our customers to actively manage sustainability.

In the field of diagnostics, we offer scientifically sound and objective insights for targeted personnel decisions and individual career paths. Whether aptitude diagnostics, potential analysis or career counselling - we support companies and private individuals in recognising strengths, promoting talents and setting a secure course for the future.
