New agency promotes climate protection and energy efficiency in the Swiss economy

On behalf of the federal administration five competent and renowned organisations are joining forces and ensuring greater competition in the area of emissions reduction and energy efficiency in the Swiss economy.

Clean Tech in Switzerland

Swiss companies now have a new partner available to help them to become more climate friendly and energy efficient and to reduce CO₂ emissions and energy costs.

The federal government has commissioned act – Cleantech Agentur Schweiz – with supporting the implementation of CO₂ and energy legislation in the economy between 2014 and 2022. The energy and climate protection specialists at act help companies with both the administrative and the technical implementation of measures.

myclimate is substantially involved in the implementation as one of the five founder and sponsor organisations behind act. So in addition to its previous activities, which were mainly focused on the voluntary market, myclimate is now taking on an important and ambitious role in the execution of the national climate-friendly energy transformation. myclimate therefore offers firms in Switzerland a comprehensive overall package when it comes to the reduction of CO₂ emissions and the increase in energy efficiency.

With act, the agency that previously had a monopoly is exposed to competition. Thus the Swiss economy has more options open to it for faster and more intensive climate protection.
