Seven Years of Successful Partnership – Now on a Long-Term Contract Basis
What began about seven years ago with an initial meeting has now grown into a successful partnership featuring numerous joint projects. During the Schmid Mawera Group’s International Sales Conference, this collaboration was officially sealed with the signing of a partnership agreement.
The agreement was signed by Adrien Haller, CEO of Energy &+, and Pierre Doreau, Head of Sales at Energy &+, together with Philipp Lüscher, CEO of the Schmid Mawera Group, and Laurent Koehl, Managing Director for France.
Shared Values as the Foundation
When Energy &+ was looking for a reliable manufacturer of combustion systems for biogenic solid fuels about seven years ago, its search led it to what was then Schmid AG energy solutions in Switzerland.
It became clear from the very first meeting that the two companies shared far more than just a similar corporate philosophy. A commitment to the highest quality and a shared determination to continuously develop innovative energy solutions formed the basis of the collaboration from the very beginning.
Convinced of the quality of the combustion systems and the consistent advancement of the technologies, Energy &+ launched a joint pilot project shortly after its first visit to Switzerland. This evolved into a partnership that has continued to grow to this day.
A Strong Partnership for the French Market
For the Schmid Mawera Group, Energy &+ is now a key partner in serving the French market. In western France in particular, customers benefit from regional support with quick response times and locally available service technicians.
At the same time, Energy &+ ideally complements Schmid Mawera’s service portfolio with its comprehensive expertise in plant engineering. Together, they create smart heating plants that combine various components with state-of-the-art technology. The result is multimodal, highly efficient, and carbon-neutral energy solutions that are precisely tailored to customers’ needs.
Manufacturer Know-How Meets Plant Engineering Expertise
The partnership brings together two perfectly complementary areas of expertise: the Schmid Mawera Group’s long-standing manufacturing know-how and Energy &+’s comprehensive engineering and plant engineering expertise.
These synergies have already proven their worth impressively. Together, the companies have sold over twelve plants and successfully completed eight projects to date. The recent signing of the contract underscores their shared commitment to further expanding this successful collaboration over the long term.
The two companies have been exhibiting together for the past year at the Bio360 trade fair in Nantes, one of the largest international trade fairs for bioenergy, the bioeconomy, and CO₂ removal.
Shaping the Future of Energy Together
Since 2006, Energy &+ has been developing and building solutions in the areas of biomass heating plants, anaerobic digestion, and biomass gasification for customers in industry, agriculture, and municipalities. As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Charwood Energy Group, the company is committed to supporting its customers in their decarbonization projects and offering them renewable energy solutions that combine high technical quality with sustainable added value.
Together as Energy Pioneers, Schmid Mawera and Energy &+ develop smart heating plants that efficiently integrate multiple technologies. The combination of manufacturing expertise, engineering know-how, and regional customer focus creates solutions that not only meet today’s requirements but also actively shape the energy supply of tomorrow. In this way, a successful partnership becomes a shared pioneering path toward a sustainable energy future.
