Three institutions talk about electricity in Laufenburg, its production, distribution and storage on site. With Marcel Aumer, FlexBase Holding GmbH (Laufenburg AG); a representative of Swissgrid AG (Aarau) and Beat Karrer, naturenergie holding AG
(Laufenburg AG), moderated by Joël Rehmann (Board of Trustees of the Rehmann Museum).
The institution naturenergie holding AG, represented by Beat Karrer, which built the first hydroelectric power station across the Rhine from 1907 to 1913 as the public limited company Kraftwerk Laufenburg (KWL) and inaugurated it in 1914. To build the power station, the rapids of Laufenburg - known as the smaller Laufen - were blown up. Today, Naturenergie Hochrhein produces reliable electricity for the South Baden region and Switzerland.
In 1958, Swissgrid, in cooperation with France and Germany, played a leading role in the construction of the Laufenburg rapids. A visionary project that interconnected the power grids of Germany, France and Switzerland at the 220-kilovolt voltage level and that still meets our energy needs today. With its high-voltage grid, Swissgrid secures the power supply so that electricity can be obtained safely and stably at all times.
Marcel Aumer from Flex Base Holding GmbH, who is implementing a visionary project for enormous energy storage with a battery and a data center for artificial intelligence at Swissgrid's former headquarters in Laufenburg.
These three experts will talk about the past and the future. A conversation about the technology of energy and how it is produced, traded, stored and dispatched and how this will continue to happen in the future.
Admission: 15.- CHF
Admission, reduced: 10.- CHF
