BKW electricity labelling: electricity mix and origin

Transparency on origin

What the electricity labelling indicates

The labelling shows all the electricity that BKW Energie AG supplied to its end customers in the reference year.

You have been receiving reliable electricity from BKW for many years. The electricity labelling shows you how this electricity was produced – for example from hydropower, solar energy, wind energy, biomass or nuclear energy. Important: the electricity labelling shows the average across all supplied end customers. Your personal electricity mix may differ from this.
