We live in a dynamic, increasingly interconnected society that needs and demands a reliable energy supply. We are continually modernising our infrastructure to ensure high security of supply, now and in the future.

naturemade star fund

ewz’s naturemade star fund creates new, biodiverse habitats for plants and animals. For every kilowatt-hour of green power sold from the certified power plants, we put one centime into the fund. This supports sustainable projects such as the renaturation of the Inn river.
