Founded in 1904 as Kraftwerke Brusio AG, the company built its first power plant in Campocologno, in Valposchiavo in southern Graubünden, right on the border to Italy. At the time this was the biggest facility of its kind in Europe. Because the plant was so close to the border, doing business internationally was a core competence of the company from the very start. Repower has an extensive archive of pictures. Some photos can be downloaded for free. TO THE PHOTO GALLERY Strong roots in Graubünden...
