Invitation to the 29th Ordinary General Meeting of SVUT
The Swiss Association for Environmental Technology (SVUT) is committed to the development of a safe and future-oriented environment, energy, waste and water management. The association now invites for this year's general assembly. It will take place on March 14 at the site of Kraftwerke Oberhasli AG.
SVUT was founded in 1989 and is thus not only the oldest, but also the most important trade association of the environmental technology industry in Switzerland. The association is politically and economically independent. Its members include companies, experts and service providers from all areas of environmental, energy, waste and water management.
The General Assembly is the supreme and determining body of SVUT. It elects the board, the auditors and substitutes, approves the activity report of the board, the annual accounts and the respective budget for the coming business year. The unofficial part takes place in the power plants Oberhasli as well as in the Grimselwelt.
The official part with statutory ordinary General Assembly thematizes for example:

Kraftwerke Oberhasli AG, KWO
KWO is one of the leading hydropower companies in Switzerland. It produces electricity in abundant quantities. Thanks to the large reservoirs, which provide plenty of "fuel" even in winter, the KWO can respond instantaneously to the constant fluctuations in electricity demand throughout the year and align its production with demand at all times.
Nevertheless, the Swiss glacier world is receding. The retreat of the Trift glacier opens up the potential for a hydropower project of national importance. The exposed terrain depression and the topographical conditions are ideal. Over the past four years, the KWO has developed a project that envisages a reservoir and a power plant in the "underen Trift".
Grimselstrom makes an important and nature-friendly contribution to Switzerland's electricity supply. The SVUT General Assembly promises to be an exciting excursion that not only opens up a diverse contact forum, but also includes a tour of the Grimsel 2 power plants and a visit to the Crystal Gap.
