Swissgrid has updated its long-term plan for the expansion of the transmission grid. Project manager Marc Vogel evaluates the results.

There are a number of persistent myths about the grid. But are any of them true? Swissgrid explains the facts.

There are a number of persistent myths about the grid. But are they really true? Fortunately, Swissgrid expert Marc Vogel knows the facts.

Even grid operators are suffering from a shortage of skilled labour. How serious is the problem? And how can it be solved? We asked two employer branding experts.

More and more solar plants, heat pumps and charging stations are being installed in Switzerland. What does this mean for the distribution grid? We asked two specialists from Energie Thun AG.

When it comes to the grid of the future, the cantons are an important player too. In an interview, two experts discuss how they could play an even greater role.

Large solar plants are to be built in the Swiss mountains by as early as 2025. This represents a challenge for grid operators: they have to implement the grid connections.

In the first post in the blog series, we looked at the home of the future and saw an energy-optimised, networked work of art. For this vision to become reality, the infrastructure – i.e. the grid – must keep pace with digitalisation and the transformation of the energy system.

In the future, the grid will also be a data highway – and our home will be an energy-optimised, networked work of art. There are a number of challenges to overcome along the way. The electricity grid operators are working closely together to meet these challenges. After all, there is only one grid in Switzerland, and millions of people rely on it every day.
