About Energie AG

Energie AG Oberösterreich is a driving force behind a sustainable energy future. As the largest energy supplier in Austria’s largest industrial region, it is doing everything in its power to decarbonise the cycle of generation, distribution and utilisation – in other words, to sustainably reduce the CO₂ emissions of the entire company. The goal is to achieve climate neutrality and independence by 2035, while ensuring security of supply and disposal. By 2035, a total of more than 1 TWh per year is to come from renewable energy sources such as water, wind and sun. This corresponds to the average electricity consumption of around 330,000 households and thus more than 700,000 people. With the construction of the Ebensee pumped storage power plant, Energie AG is taking another important step towards a sustainable energy future.
