We provide stability and flexibility to the national power grid, integrating renewable energies and unlocking the value of land.
Swiss Energy Program is a project promoted by Tarchini Group – powered by GIG Europe – involving the development and installation of more than 100 battery energy storage systems (BESS) across Switzerland, each with an indicative rating of around 5 MW / 10 MWh.
The program was created to strengthen the stability of the Swiss power grid, support distribution networks and foster the integration of renewable energies, through standardized, reliable infrastructure designed to last.
We select plots of land close to major distribution substations to install our BESS and provide flexibility to the grid. We offer a guaranteed annual income for at least 30 years and the opportunity to actively contribute to the energy transition and to achieving the Confederation's targets.
COLLABORATION WITH
GRID OPERATORS
Swiss Energy Program is developed in ongoing dialogue with distribution system operators (DSOs) from the earliest stages.
This collaboration makes it possible to:
TYPES
OF SITES
Swiss Energy Program focuses on identifying sites with the technical and logistical characteristics suited to installing BESS systems.
The program looks for sites with:
