Axpo Unveils Alpine Solar Duo
Axpo's ambitious project is set to bring renewable energy to Switzerland with a new 30MW solar plant on Alp da Rueun. Combined with an existing 15MW array, the two sites are expected to generate 66GWh per year, enough to power the equivalent of 14,000 households. To be completed in late 2025, the project will also keep ski slopes, hiking and cycling trails undisturbed.
