In the ZUG ALLIANCE, business, science and politics jointly create the knowledge, the framework conditions and the products and services that will secure tomorrow's prosperity. The aim is to foster cross-sector collaboration in order to decarbonise energy and mobility faster.
Declarations of intent have turned into installations: temporary photovoltaics now generate electricity on flat roofs that would otherwise have stayed empty. Bidirectional charging stations feed electricity from vehicle batteries back into the grid at three sites. Under the umbrella of the «Zug Virtual Power Plant» we are currently running seven energy projects — each scientifically supervised, each with real installations in the canton of Zug.
The ZUG ALLIANCE is organised as an association - the members are:
«Intelligence instead of copper»: rather than reinforcing the distribution grid primarily with additional lines and transformer stations, we use storage, control, load shifting and sector coupling to get more capacity out of what already exists. Seven projects are under way — from temporary photovoltaics and grid-serving battery storage to dynamic grid tariffs.
If you have any questions about the ZUG ALLIANCE, please feel free to get in touch with us via the contact form. We look forward to getting to know you.
