Energieversorgung Mittelrhein

What Energieversorgung Mittelrhein does

Energieversorgung Mittelrhein AG (evm) is a municipal multi-utility company headquartered in Koblenz, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, operating as the largest municipal energy and service provider in the state with more than 1,000 employees. Founded in 1886, evm supplies residential, commercial, and municipal customers across Rhineland-Palatinate through 11 owned customer centers (Kundenzentren) and a regulated grid footprint secured via concession agreements (Konzessionen) in multiple municipalities. Its core product portfolio spans 100% renewable electricity, natural gas, drinking water, district and contracting heat, photovoltaic and battery storage systems, heat pumps, EV charging infrastructure, and bundled internet/phone/TV telecom services. The company executes hardware installation and servicing through its own craftspeople (eigener Handwerksbetrieb), supplemented by digital channels including a customer portal, Microsoft Teams video consultation, and an AI-enhanced customer service operation.

The business model combines recurring consumption-based revenue from electricity, gas, water, and telecom supply with project-based hardware sales (solar, heat pumps, wallboxes), heat contracting, and professional services (energy audits, ISO 50001 consulting, municipal heat planning). Pricing is tariff-based with price guarantees; tariffs are not publicly disclosed and require a tariff finder or customer contact. Distribution runs through owned retail showrooms, a field sales force for business and municipal accounts, telephone advisory, and video consultation. Recent strategic activity centers on concession-driven grid expansion (Mayen network takeover adding 20% grid capacity), renewable infrastructure buildout (Photovoltaik-Offensive Nord, wind repowering, hydrogen pilot in Koblenz-Kesselheim via the H2vorOrt initiative), smart-meter rollout through subsidiary Energienetze Mittelrhein, and the launch of the evm+ Energiepilot home energy management system. Ownership is municipal — public entities rather than PE/VC or strategic shareholders — and the company holds industry certifications including TOP 100 Innovator 2026, Stadtwerke-Award 2026 nomination, Kununu Top Company 2025, and Top-Lokalversorger 2025 for electricity and gas.
