    Smartconext moves into Suurstoffi Innovation Park

    According to a press release , the smartconext Group has decided to relocate its company location from Baar to the Suurstoffi area in Rotkreuz. From August 1st, the Swiss marketplace for construction and real estate information will operate from the Switzerland Innovation Park Central .

    Numerous national and international companies, institutions and start-ups are based in the former industrial area. The Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts also has a campus there. The proximity to well-known tenants from various sectors and the climate-neutral orientation offer plenty of development potential for a built environment worth living in.

    Smartconext expects the relocation of the headquarters to provide impetus and synergies for future tasks in the building and energy sector. The company, which specializes in intelligent, user-friendly and value-added digital products, accepts an offer from Switzerland Innovation to rent space on the campus, which, in accordance with the "Open Innovation" philosophy, focuses on a mix of different industry representatives and groups. With its core competencies in the construction industry, the new tenant can contribute to the goal of solution-oriented innovations. "The smartconext Group stands for digitization and transformation in the construction industry," says Dr. Maximilian Richter, Innovation Manager of the Switzerland Innovation Park Central, quoted.

  • Suurstoffi: Area development with a model character

    Suurstoffi: Area development with a model character

    «The Suurstoffi offers everything we need for our work. We can no longer be taken away so quickly here, ”says Sanofi Aventis CEO Andrea Meyer. A nice compliment for Zug Estates, which in the last ten years has developed a district in Rotkreuz that impresses with its architecture, greenery and energy efficiency. The once unattractive area has been revitalized. "The Rotkreuz community has an excellent macro location and is easily accessible by public transport," says Martin Jöri, Head of Strategic Site Management at Zug Estates. “The area is right next to the train station, but can also be easily reached by motorized private transport. The quarter is a kind of village within the village, and the campus concept is omnipresent. "

    A healthy mix
    All in all, Jöri appreciates the mix of living, business, research, school and gastronomy. He also likes the typical district infrastructure with a hairdresser or doctor. According to the latest construction status, the area is practically completed: “A construction site with two office buildings (Suurstoffi p. 18/19) has not yet been developed – but the building permit is available. The construction will be triggered in accordance with demand if sufficient occupancy has been achieved beforehand. " Looking back, Jöri regards the high construction speed with the aim of on-time commissioning as the greatest hurdle that had to be overcome.

    “Zero-Zero” goal
    The Suurstoffi is breaking new ground with an exemplary energy concept. On the site, solar use, several dynamic underground storage facilities and an anergy network form the basis for achieving the “zero-zero” goal. That means: the around 165,000 square meter Suurstoffi area is CO2-neutral. The energy for heating and cooling is generated by underground storage and building waste heat, electricity is provided by various solar power systems. The aim is complete self-sufficiency with primary energy for heating and water treatment. It was precisely this ambitious energy concept that particularly appealed to Jöri about the building: “It is a future-oriented vision of a CO2-free quarter with as much energy as possible, which is provided from our own production. But the architecture is also great. There is no uniformity here. Each construction site has a varied design. We also attached great importance to a green and high-quality outdoor space. "

    Drilling for the Ennetsee heating network begins

    According to a press release from WWZ , the construction of the 6.5 kilometer long heat transport pipeline from Perlen to Rotkreuz is in the starting blocks. It is part of the Ennetsee heating network. A challenge of this construction phase is the trenchless crossing under the Reuss and the A14 motorway. To this end, WWZ is starting these days between the sports field of the Root LU sports club and the Rütilöli area in Inwil LU with two pilot drillings for protective plastic pipes. The official start of construction is at the end of March, beginning of April.

    The official start of construction of this heat transport pipeline from the Renergia waste incineration plant in Perlen to Rotkreuz is planned for this spring. The district heating pipes would then also be pulled into the protective pipes under the A14 motorway. After completion of the major project, the region should save around 12,000 tons of CO2 annually.
