The Energy Transition Award
The Energy Transition Award is a prestigious acknowledgement for the pioneers of the energy transition in the DACH region in various categories. Companies that succeed in comprehensively integrating the new energy world into their product and service portfolio are seen as role models for others.
Unlike in the traditional energy industry, customers – private households – are active players in the energy transition as well. They determine not only the demand by purchasing green power, renewable heat or biofuels, but also become suppliers themselves through their use of renewable energies.
Thus, companies are faced with the challenge of positioning themselves in the energy transition with innovative products and services for customers and their changing needs.

“We are delighted to receive this award, as it is recognition of the path we have taken so far towards a new energy world, which we have been shaping for many years. After all, we can only overcome the challenges of the energy transition together if we think about the generation of electricity & heat as well as urban mobility in a networked way.”
“Electromobility must be made accessible to everyone – the traditional wallbox business is changing. At Süwag, we offer a wide range of products for home, on-the-go, and workplace charging. For “last mile” mobility, we have our e-scooter sharing service. We are gradually evolving into a mobility provider.”
“We are proud to be awarded the Energiewende-Award in the Mobility category as Burgenland Energie. Our goal is to make Burgenland climate-neutral and energy-independent by 2030. This can only work if the energy transition is also enjoyable! Therefore, our approach is to provide comprehensive mobility solutions that are simple and free from significant technical or organizational hurdles, thus gaining the people in the region as allies for the energy transition. This award validates our efforts and motivates us to continue moving forward.”
As a local energy supplier, we have a major responsibility for the environment and future generations. Together with local stakeholders, we are creating the necessary infrastructure in Witten for the mobility transition. We want to make it as easy as possible to use in order to promote the expansion of electric mobility.
