About
Payerne-energies is a co-op headquartered in Payerne, Switzerland specializing in Biomass, Energy Storage.
Payerne Energies SA is a joint venture between the Municipality of Payerne and Romande Energie, operating a district heating system (chauffage à distance) across the commune. The system distributes heat produced from local wood combustion and heat recovery from the wastewater treatment station via an underground network. Heat is delivered to individual substations installed in buildings, replacing traditional fossil fuel heating systems. The company guarantees minimum 90% renewable energy production, with pricing indexed to wood commodity costs and consumer price index. Service includes network maintenance, 24/7 emergency support, and cost-stable long-term contracts (25 years). The project began in January 2023 and is being deployed in 10 phases across residential districts (Grandes Rayes, Mont Tendre, Rue du Stade).
