The Axpo Group is Switzerland’s leading energy utility. With its subsidiaries Axpo AG (formerly Nordostschweizerische Kraftwerke AG, NOK), Centralschweizerische Kraftwerke AG (CKW) and Elektrizitäts-Gesellschaft Laufenburg AG (EGL). Axpo combines strong local roots with an international outlook.
Axpo's aim is to guarantee a reliable supply of electricity produced from environmentally friendly sources at competitive prices. To this end, it is involved in all phases of the value-added chain: electricity generation and transmission, power distribution and trading. The Axpo mix of nuclear power, hydropower and new energies not only makes economic sense, but also is practically carbon-neutral and therefore climate-friendly.
