Energieverbund Thalwil goes to the starting position

Thalwil ZH, January 2022

The new Thalwil energy network from Energie 360° is scheduled to start work in the autumn of this year. It uses the water from Lake Zurich to supply the community with heat and cold. The energy center of the network moves to the basement of the Dr. Ernst Th. Jucker Foundation.

For the new energy network Thalwil, energy is extracted from the water of Lake Zurich in a lake water center, informs Energie 360 ° on the project page of the lake water energy network of the Zurich energy service provider. This energy is fed to the network’s energy center and fed from there into the district heating network. Peak loads are to be covered with a gas heating system integrated into the energy center.

with the dr. Ernst Th. Jucker Foundation, Energie 360° has now found the location for this energy center. In a statement , the energy service provider announced that it would be moving into the second basement floor of a foundation property currently under construction on Gotthardstrasse in Thalwil. The ground floor and first floor are reserved for Bank Thalwil. Rental apartments are to be built on the remaining floors.

“The space in the center of Thalwil is tight,” Foundation President Christine Burgener is quoted as saying in the statement. The former mayor has accompanied the planning of the new energy network from the start. “When Energie 360° and the municipality of Thalwil approached us, we offered a hand so that the energy center could be implemented in our building.” In return, Energie 360° will supply the property with energy at a fixed price. The new network is scheduled to start work at the beginning of the heating season this fall.
