Of the indigenous, climate-friendly new renewable energies, deep geothermal energy has by far the greatest theoretical potential in Switzerland.
Geo-Energie Suisse AG is a company of several Swiss energy supply companies that want to help deep geothermal energy achieve a breakthrough for the production of electricity and heat in Switzerland.
Geo-Energie Suisse AG was founded on 2 November 2010. The company is based in the city of Zurich.
With Geo-Energie Suisse AG, the participating energy suppliers are combining their expertise and resources for the development of this young technology, thereby creating a common basis for broadly supporting the economic and technical risks.
The main objective of Geo-Energie Suisse AG is to develop pilot projects to demonstrate the technical feasibility of deep geothermal power plants in the medium term and their economic viability in the long term. At the same time, the aim is to promote understanding and acceptance of deep geothermal energy among the general public.
