Alpiq invests in security of supply and achieves very good half-year result
Lausanne – Alpiq further strengthened the focus on its core business in the first half of the year and expanded its business in the energy storage and flexibility segment. Alpiq’s financial position is very solid. The energy markets in the first half of 2024 were shaped by falling electricity prices and very low price volatility. Against this backdrop, Alpiq achieved a very good result with an adjusted EBITDA of CHF 463 million. Adjusted net revenue fell to CHF 2,883 million due to lower prices, while adjusted net income totalled CHF 287 million.
The Hongrin dams in the solar age
Veytaux - The Forces Motrices Hongrin-Léman (FMHL) are commissioning this week a new photovoltaic installation. Located on the crest of the Hongrin dams, the 720 solar modules will supply around 70 households with electricity, mainly in winter, when Switzerland's energy needs are at their highest. This is part of FMHL's ongoing efforts to improve energy efficiency.
Balancing the development of renewable energies and the protection of biodiversity
To protect the climate and therefore biodiversity, we need to replace fossil energies with clean Swiss electricity. However, an energy supply based on renewable energies cannot be achieved entirely without an impact on the environment. That's why Alpiq is committed to a superior balancing of interests between protection and utility.
