The company states on its website that it has supplied its customers reliably with gas and electricity for 160 years, a claim that points to a supply heritage reaching back to the nineteenth century, when German cities began building municipal gas and electricity networks. Over time, such municipal operations expanded from gas and electricity into heat and drinking water, and Stadtwerke Frankenthal today describes itself as a provider of natural gas, electricity, heat and drinking water delivered directly to customers. In the modern era, the company has broadened its role beyond pure supply. It emphasises a forward-looking procurement strategy for a responsible and future-oriented energy supply, and it markets products such as a heat-pump electricity tariff and a fixed-price natural gas offering. It has also developed digital services, including a customer portal, online forms, a moving service and the swiFT app, and it promotes photovoltaic offerings in line with the energy transition.
