Where we come from
The story of ecovolta began over 10 years ago in the valley basin of Schwyz, Switzerland. Our founder, farmer Baptist Reichmuth, has always been driven by a desire for independence in all aspects of life. His vision: to turn farm waste into energy and produce his electricity. Ten years later, that vision became reality. The biogas plant is now operational – and Agro Energie Schwyz AG supplies not only the Reichmuth family farm but also the entire region with sustainable energy.
Where we are going
The sons Pirmin and Philip do the same as their father. They are fascinated by innovative energy technologies and want to run their farm independently and sustainably. The electricity from the photovoltaic system on the barn roof is to be used to operate the milking machine in the barn and to power the electric tractor in the field. Together, the Reichmuths are pursuing the vision of becoming energy self-sufficient with the latest technologies and sustainable resources.
