About the Zug Alliance

Our objectives

The ZUG ALLIANCE aims to achieve the following objectives through cooperation between commercial enterprises, research institutions, and public bodies and institutions, focussing on the research, development, financing, production, provision and operation of sustainable projects.

Rapid decarbonisation

The legally compliant decarbonisation of industry, mobility and infrastructure as quickly as possible, while taking economic and social aspects into account.

Increase the resilience and security of energy supply at affordable costs by increasing the production of renewable electricity and synchronising it with the time of consumption. In addition, different forms of energy are to be combined in order to build up an efficient overall system by means of sector coupling.

Our goal is optimised networking and the decarbonisation of all modes of transport, both in public transport and in motorised private transport. This includes mobility solutions as well as an easily accessible charging infrastructure that is optimally integrated into the energy grid.
