    Basler Stadtwerke get involved in Energie Ausserschwyz

    Energie Ausserschwyz AG wants to supply renewable heat and electricity for 7,000 households in the villages of Siebnen, Galgenen, Lachen, Altendorf, Pfäffikon and Freienbach in the Schwyz districts of March and Höfe by 2030. To this end, it is currently building a wood-fired thermal power station at its existing Bodenwies energy center in Galgenen. It should be heated with old, residual and forest wood from the region.

    Now, as part of a capital increase, IWB are also joining the shareholders of Energie Ausserschwyz AG. According to a press release , Basler Stadtwerke now holds 20 percent of the capital. The regional energy supplier EW Höfe will remain the main shareholder. Brugg Group AG and Züger Unternehmerungen AG are also involved in the district heating operator.

    IWB sees their participation as a continuation of their previous strategy. "Energie Ausserschwyz focuses on a heat supply from regional, renewable sources", its CEO Claus Schmidt is quoted in the announcement. “IWB can bring its experience from climate-friendly district heating supply to Energie Ausserschwyz and benefits from its strong presence in the Upper Lake Zurich region. IWB had already joined Agro Energie Schwyz AG at the beginning of 2021 , which operates a district heating network in the Schwyz basin.

  • Six “courtyards” promise urban and natural flair in Adliswil

    Six “courtyards” promise urban and natural flair in Adliswil

    Six buildings in a park-like setting with natural names such as “Libellenhof”, “Eulenhof” or “Froschhof”. Around 10,000 square meters of space for commercial and office space and space for 331 rental apartments. Energy efficient building standard. A park-like environment, car-free zones, beautiful courtyards, meeting places and playgrounds. Urban flair through bistros, shops, a fitness center, a supermarket, a daycare center and medical practices. Relaxation, liveliness and an inspiring environment. That is what the Quartier Höfe Adliswil should be when it is completed in 2024.

    The Libellenhof and Hummelhof buildings should be ready for occupancy as early as 2022. The Libellenhof is located in the west of the area. The L-shaped structure is the gateway to the Höfe district. On the ground floor there is a supermarket, a daycare center and other services. Office space and apartments are available on the upper floors. The 56 apartments in the Libellenhof have spacious floor plans, the atrium apartments are loft-style and have roof terraces. The Hummelhof is on the east side of the quarter. Commercial space is planned on the ground floor, office space and 53 apartments on the upper floors.

    In the course of 2023, the Amselhof and the Schwalbenhof right next to it should be ready for occupancy. The Amselhof forms the south-eastern boundary of the quarter. The trapezoidal structure has a large inner courtyard. Commercial space is planned on the ground floor, office space and 68 apartments on the upper floors. The Schwalbenhof wants to appeal to tenants – double earners with or without children, singles, expats – who are looking for exclusive quality of living.

    The Froschhof and the Eulenhof are to be built by 2024. The Froschhof is also mainly intended for living. The smaller Eulenhof with only 16 apartments offers tenants a lot of privacy.
