What is the future of electricity storage in Switzerland? One important pillar of this strategy is the further development of electricity storage capacity in Switzerland. In the next years, three large-scale
Public funds are being invested in a wide range of projects, and the industry (from major power producers to startups) is dedicating large teams to develop their own storage solutions.
In Switzerland there are about 100 reservoirs for hydroelectric production, and about 15 of them have a pumping system.
Zurich, Switzerland''s economic hub, has become a hotspot for energy storage battery procurement. With 42% of Switzerland''s electricity coming from renewables in 2023 (Swiss Federal Office of Energy),
Energy storage is rapidly become more and more relevant due to the increasing renewable energy fraction in the grid, the rise of photovoltaics and the increase in electric cars.
In Switzerland''s hydropower plant statistics, a distinction is made between four types of plants: run-of-river (4''275 MW, 18''087 GWh/y), storage (8''257 MW, 17''722 GWh/y), pumped storage (3''517 MW,
Hydroelectric There are 556 hydroelectric power plants in Switzerland that have a capacity of at least 300 kW. Some of these are listed below: [1]
The free, five-language platform Swiss Energy-Charts (SEC) enables a deep and timely understanding of Switzerland''s power system. Since July 2025, SEC has released new features that
Switzerland''s largest battery storage system has gone into action stabilising the electricity network for transmission grid operator Swissgrid, asset operator Alpiq has said.
