ewz to invest further in wind farms and hydropower plants
ewz is committed to major expansion and usage of renewable energies. The focus here is on wind power plants and hydropower plants in Switzerland and other European countries. In the area of hydroelectric power, the primary objective is the reconcessioning of ewz’s own power plants and new investments in Swiss hydropower plants. In its wind power activities, ewz aims to complete ongoing domestic projects and expand its international wind farm portfolio. Photovoltaic plants offer numerous opportunities, and a substantial expansion of their use in Switzerland is a realistic option. With a third credit facility in the amount of CHF 200 million, ewz can continue the consistent restructuring of its power plant portfolio and invest in renewable energies.
