History
Axpo's roots go back to the beginnings of electrification in Switzerland over 100 years ago. Since then, the company has grown steadily and is now the largest power supplier in Switzerland. The year of birth of today's Axpo is also the year in which the first power plant network in Switzerland was created: in 1908, the then Motor AG connected its hydroelectric power plant in Beznau (AG) with the storage power plant on the Löntsch (GL) by a 100-kilometer-long 27-kilovolt line, and Motor AG spun off the two power plants into the subsidiary Kraftwerke Beznau-Löntsch AG in the same year. In 1958, the power grids of Switzerland, Germany and France were interconnected for the first time, creating the so-called "Laufenburg star"; the Elektrizitäts-Gesellschaft Laufenburg AG, which led the charge, was integrated into Axpo in 2012. Beznau 1, Switzerland's first nuclear power plant, began operation in 1969, followed by Beznau 2 in 1971; the Beznau nuclear power plant consists of two identical blocks with pressurized water reactors, each with an electrical output of 365 MW.
