ELECTRICITY, HEAT AND POWER ARE GROWING!

Our resources include:

ENERGY CROPS, HARVEST RESIDUES, CATCH CROPS AND THE MANURE OF OUR PIGS

  • from our region
  • short transportation routes
  • generated value in our region
  • Encouragement of Biodiversity in agriculture (due to additional plant utilization)

We generate energy and benefits

Intelligent energy utilization in our surrounding region or through a nationwide conjunction

...OUR ENVIRONMENT WILL HAVE THE GREATEST BENEFITS

Our energy utilization is ecofriendly, due to the net zero carbon footprint and renewable raw materials.

After generating energy the output is environmentally friendly organic fertilizer, which encourages soil organisms and plants and promotes stable humus structure in the soil.

This is a real sustainable cycle for the benefit of our nature!

WHO WE ARE AND WHERE WE COME FROM

WE PRODUCE RENEWABLE AND SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FOR OUR REGION FROM LOCAL RAW MATERIAL

We cultivate our own land and provide for our pigs. The pigs are mainly distributed to local processors. We ensure quality products from Austria to satisfy high consumer demands. The manure of swine feed the biogas unit and produces energy.

2 BIOGAS PLANTS

  • ROHKRAFT provides 8.400 MWh electricity per year to our local power-grid which supplies approximately 2.500 households
  • ROHKRAFT supplies a local heating-grid from the inner city of Sitzenberg-Reidling as well as various official buildings in the community (school, kindergarten, municipal offices, grocery) and about 30 households
  • the second local heating-grid from ROHKRAFT supplies the business park NÖ-Zentral. A plan is in progress to the first “CO2 –zero emission “ business park

Currently we employ 5 people in our company.
