What STS Elektro AG does

STS Elektro AG is a Swiss electrical contracting and engineering firm headquartered in Kriens, Canton of Lucerne, operating across the Zentralschweiz region. The company delivers electrical installations for new construction, renovation, and expansion projects across three primary segments — private households, SMEs (KMU), and large enterprises (Grossunternehmen) — supplemented by domain-specialized divisions for medical facilities (hospitals, medical practices, laboratories) and industrial clients. The technical scope covers electrical systems, ICT (via subsidiary Telgate AG), building automation, energy management, and EV charging infrastructure marketed under the STS e-mobility sub-brand in three tiers: SinglePoint (residential), MultiPoint (multi-user/commercial), and Public Solutions (public infrastructure). The company positions itself as a holistic single-source provider acting as both electrical partner and general contractor, with project leaders accompanying clients from planning through execution, supported by a 24/7 on-call Pikett service for emergency response.

The underlying technology stack is service-delivery oriented rather than software-product oriented: it depends on skilled trade labor, in-house engineering for smart lighting and building automation design, and backend partnerships with EcarUp and Last Mile Solutions for EV charging network operations. Notable proprietary operational features include a 24/7 on-call service with equipped service vehicles, on-site contactless payment, and an optional load management system for E-Mobility that optimally distributes charging power across multiple vehicles to prevent outages and minimize infrastructure investment. The company's evidence base also includes industrial-scale renewable work, such as a 600 kW peak photovoltaic installation for GEMü in Emmen.

The business model is project-based contracting with recurring service revenue. Revenue streams comprise electrical installation projects (one-time), service and maintenance contracts (recurring, including 24/7 emergency, periodic inspections, and device testing), E-Mobility solutions (installation plus management), and engineering services. Pricing is quoted per project with quotes valid for two months and contract prices binding for 12 months, alongside multi-year contract structures and pay-as-you-go service billing. Distribution is direct: enterprise field sales with project leaders for large clients, on-site service teams for SMB and consumer work, and an online booking channel for routine service requests. The company employs 80 staff plus 20+ apprentices across two Lucerne-area locations, with no publicly disclosed ownership, funding, or revenue.
