The transparent dialogue with the general public, the authorities and the economy is of the utmost importance to Swissgrid. Therefore the Visitor Centre in Bözberg was created. It is a platform for objectively demonstrating and discussing the pros and cons of overhead lines and underground cabling.
It is a first for Swissgrid: At Gäbihübel near Bözberg/Riniken, Swissgrid is laying a long section of an extra-high-voltage line underground for the first time. Even though the cable trench has already been filled in and the conduit blocks are no longer visible, the project remains exciting. Swissgrid will collect data and gain insights during operation of the line.
On this website, you will find content on all aspects of underground cabling and overhead line construction, the partial cabling project at Gäbihübel and – if you have not been our guest yet – the option of registering for a visit. We look forward to talking to you.
Group tours can be booked from Monday to Friday, depending on availability (see available dates in the calendar below).
