EM was founded in Leiden, the Netherlands in 1929 and has grown to become a leading global engineering company in the field of steam generating equipment. However it was not until 1968 that it moved into the expanding energy market. This began when it was granted a license to supply HRSGs to the General Electric Company (GEC). In the 1980s GEC sold manufacturing rights to NEM thereby
establishing the company as a major new force in the global energy marketplace. Today NEM is based at Hengelo and Leiden and is comprised of several distinct business units. These are operating in a diverse range of industrial activities from the manufacture of HRSGs for gas turbines, to a number of related activities such as waste management and incineration and the supply of industrial and utility boilers.
Tailor-made products and solutions NEM’s heat recovery steam generators represent the biggest contribution to the company’s turnover and its unparalleled know-how and commitment to continuous technological innovation has kept NEM ahead of the field. NEM is recognised internationally as the preferred partner for tailormade products and solutions, which are aimed at generating reliable energy in the
