Because hydropower is not only renewable and practically CO2-free, it can also be stored. "Hydropower is our best asset for the successful implementation of the Energy Strategy 2050", says Michael Frank, Director of the Association of Swiss Electricity Companies VSE, in a new short film. "That is why we have to take care of hydropower." The film by the VSE and the Swiss Water Management Association (SWV) explains the connections and shows why fair framework conditions are needed for local hydropower so that it can become profitable again and survive in the face of global market distortions.

It transports, transforms, monitors, integrates, measures and controls: More than 600 employees work to ensure that our customers are supplied with electricity around the clock via our network.
