With so many companies involved in the push for green energy, it is comforting to see visaVento provide tangible, actionable results Contact: Tobias Zimmerli Company: visaVento AG Web Address: https://visavento.eu/ Aug22634 Leading Independent Eco-Power Supplier 2022 – Switzerland Currently, 85% of electricity production is by coal-fired power plants. With the environment in dire straits, forward-thinking initiatives on moving away from fossil fuels have never been more urgent. visaVento AG is not only positively contributing to the transition to sustainable energy production, but it is well on the way to becoming the leading independent provider of green electricity in Eastern Europe. visaVento is a specialised wind and photovoltaic (PV) energy generation company, it covers the entire value chain from planning and construction to operation and electricity trading. Operating across the full breadth of production, its team guarantees the highest service and product quality along the entire value chain. Over the past 11 years, visaVento has built a team of specialists and made inroads with other industry experts to maximise its output and efficiency across Poland and Switzerland. The team collaborates with other leading companies within the renewable energy sector, particularly in manufacturing and selling wind turbines, to unlock their full potential.

It also maintains an ambition to become an industry leader for independent green power suppliers in eastern Europe. Not for greed or prestige, but because the visaVento knows its example is the one to follow. For example, to date, it has generated over 174,471 MWh of electricity for its partners and has helped the environment by reducing CO2 production, saving 116,314 tonnes. Despite the impressive numbers, they are dwarfed by visaVento’s upcoming projects. To implement its ambitious goals, visaVento has formed a management team that is highly experienced in the market. In addition, the company is staffed with selected specialists with in-depth and lengthy experience in a combination of wind, PV, and storage-related roles. When also including its partners, visaVento has a vast network that specialises in the planning, construction, and operation of wind and solar parks. Collectively, this network spearheads change and innovation across the industry. An example of how visaVento remains a driving force in the industry is how it responded to the sharp rise in the cost of electricity in Poland. Projections on further price increases in subsequent years – due to climate protection-related measures for the accelerated expansion of renewables – were made by experts. So, with these in mind, visaVento ensured it was poised for substantial medium to long-term success. Ahead of these changes, the company concluded lease agreements on six new wind farms with a prospective annual saving of 430,100 tonnes in CO2 between them. A few are even entering the next steps of project planning and construction. In addition, it sold, and is retaining operational management of, a seventh that saves an additional 32,100 tonnes of CO2 each year. Global Business Awards 2022 19
