Every two years the Federal Office of Energy examines the extent to which Swiss energy suppliers are contributing to the federal government’s Energy Strategy 2050. The study assesses the companies and their activities in relation to renewable energies and energy efficiency in the electricity and heating / gas sectors.
Stadtwerk Winterthur ranks 6th out of 61 companies in the “Heat and Gas” area and 7th out of 93 in the “Electricity” area with two other companies. In both cases, EWZ (City of Zurich) came first. EKZ (Canton of Zurich) is not listed. Participation in the study is voluntary.
