6 FAQs about [Energy gate Switzerland]

What is Switzerland's energy strategy?

Switzerland's energy relies mainly on hydroelectric, nuclear, and natural gas, as well as imported petroleum for cars since Switzerland produces no fossil fuels. Launched in 2011, the 2050 Energy Strategy aims to shift towards sustainable energy practices, achieving climate neutrality and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

What type of energy is used in Switzerland?

Most energy consumed in Switzerland is in the form of petroleum and motor fuels (43%), followed by electricity (26%) and gas (15%). Most of this energy is used by private households and transport (each one third), while manufacturing and services each account for just under one fifth.

Are Switzerland's electricity and gas markets fully liberalised?

Switzerland’s electricity and gas markets are not yet fully liberalised and there has never been public support for this despite the government’s efforts. Moreover, skyrocketing energy prices due to the energy crisis have reduced support for further opening the market.

Why is electricity consumption declining in Switzerland?

Since 2015, electricity consumption in Switzerland has been on a downwards trend. The energy transition is currently being implemented in Switzerland through the Energy Strategy 2050, with the goal of climate neutrality.

Why is Switzerland importing electricity in winter?

With the expected changes to the energy mix in neighbouring countries, the winter import dependency might become critical, although Switzerland is importing electricity mainly at times when electricity prices are low in Europe.

How much energy does Switzerland consume per capita?

Energy consumption per capita has been declining in Switzerland for years: although the population grew by 28.7% between 1990 and 2020, energy consumption decreased by 5.9% during the same period. Most energy consumed in Switzerland is in the form of petroleum and motor fuels (43%), followed by electricity (26%) and gas (15%).
