What Energie does

Energie AG Oberösterreich is a vertically integrated Austrian multi-utility operator headquartered in Linz, founded in 1892, serving more than 450,000 customers across electricity, natural gas, district heating, fiber-optic internet, e-mobility, water, and waste services. The company owns 168 power plants (43 hydropower, 11 thermal, 100 photovoltaic, 14 wind), a 33,000 km electricity distribution network, 5,600 km of gas pipelines, and 5,800 km of fiber infrastructure, supplying over 1 million inhabitants with drinking water across Upper Austria and the Czech Republic. Operations extend through 17 wholly-owned subsidiaries organized by function (generation, network, sales, business customers, services/digital, environment, water, and district heating in Steyr), plus an EV charging network of 245 public charging points at 125+ Upper Austrian locations interoperable with BEÖ, Smatrics, and ÖAMTC networks.

The business model is dominated by recurring subscription revenue from retail and B2B utility supply, supplemented by one-time fees for installation services (Solar Sorglos PV packages), usage-based fees for EV charging, and professional services (energy certificates, thermography, blower-door testing). Pricing is publicly disclosed (e.g., Feel Good Energie at 12.00 ct/kWh) and customers are served through a hybrid GTM: direct digital self-service via the E-Portal, a regional Marktpartner network of electrical contractors and retailers providing local service, and dedicated B2B account management. Customer loyalty is reinforced through the Kombibonus cross-product discount program, the Kundenklub, and household appliance replacement subsidies up to EUR 100.

The company is currently executing a EUR 4 billion capital program through 2035 targeting renewable generation, grid-scale storage, and infrastructure modernization, anchored by the EUR 500 million Pumpspeicherkraftwerk Ebensee flagship and a EUR 300 million+ PV own-generation investment. Recent strategic moves include the LOOP restructuring that consolidated services into a unified digital entity, the appointment of Eva Schinkinger as CFO from January 2026, and the commissioning of the 13-MWp EWS Sonnenfeld Mining agrivoltaic plant. The company is privately held with no disclosed external parent and reports under CEO Leonhard Schitter and CTO Alexander Kirchner.
