About us

Alpiq is a leading Swiss electricity producer and energy service provider with a strong presence across Europe. We deliver comprehensive and efficient solutions in energy generation, trading, and optimisation for industrial and commercial customers.

Our purpose – “together for a better climate and an improved security of supply” – guides our entrepreneurial actions and is firmly anchored in our corporate culture. We pursue a sustainable, financially robust, and risk-adjusted business model.

Alpiq operates a strong and flexible asset base, including Swiss hydropower, nuclear, thermal plants, and renewable energy facilities. For more than a century, we have been producing low-carbon electricity from Swiss hydropower. Today, our portfolio also includes wind and solar assets in several European countries and modern gas-fired combined-cycle plants in Italy, Spain, and Hungary, ensuring security of supply and efficiency.

Expanding flexibility solutions

To accelerate Europe’s energy transition, Alpiq operates one of the most flexible portfolios in Europe, comprising pumped-hydro assets, complemented by modern gas-fired power plants and advanced battery energy storage systems (BESS), actively driving the integration of renewable energies and meeting the growing demand for reliable, low-emission and affordable electricity. To support its customers even more effectively, the company is scaling up by expanding its presence in core markets and exploring new opportunities in Western Europe, with a particular focus on structured energy products, innovative flexibility offerings such as BESS and demand-side solutions, as well as power purchase agreements (PPAs) and customer platforms for flexibility and intraday access.

From 2026, Alpiq will adopt a new organisational structure – with the business divisions Assets, Trading and Energy Solutions – to enhance customer focus and operational efficiency. Supported by a strong financial foundation, Alpiq continues to invest in sustainable infrastructure and innovation.
