Where we are coming from
The story of ecocoach originated over 10 years ago in the valley basin of Schwyz (CH). Our founder farmer Baptist Reichmuth is self-determined and strives for more independence in all areas of life. Thus, he has the idea to recycle farm waste for energy in order to produce his own energy. Ten years later, his idea becomes reality, the biogas plant is up and running and Agro Energie Schwyz AG supplies not only the Reichmuths' farm but 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.
But for the family, the range and speed with which they can use renewable energy are not big enough. They want to drive the development of innovative technologies themselves and realise the ideas of tomorrow, today. Reichmuths decide to develop energy management systems and electricity storage for buildings and vehicles. They found ecocoach AG and put together a competent, dynamic team consisting of electricians and software developers who share their fascination and want to help shape the future of energy.
ecocoach is a combination of the words "eco" for "ecology" and "eco" for "economic" and "coach" for coach and promoter. The aim is to have a coach in the use of renewable resources thanks to technology, which ensures that we preserve our earth for all future generations and at the same time act economically. All in the spirit of energetic independence for people, their communities and businesses.
