A neighbourhood solution in Aesch as part of the Front Runner Program
The Front Runner Program by Energie Schweiz supports ambitious cities and municipalities in Switzerland in achieving their energy and climate goals. The municipality of Aesch (BL) was selected as a “Front Runner Municipality” under the Front Runner Program of Energie Schweiz. Together with TEP Energy, Aesch is developing and testing innovative models for the shared use and generation of electricity, heat, and mobility at the neighborhood and district levels as part of the “«LEG+» subproject.
The project will run from January 2026 to October 2027 under the title:
«LEG+: Integrated Energy Community for Electricity, Heat, and Mobility in the Neighborhood and District»
A LEG+ could involve, for example:
- generating renewable heat in collaboration with neighboring buildings,
- using electricity from a shared photovoltaic system,
- charging electric vehicles or e-bikes together,
- or organizing shared mobility solutions together.
Whether one or more of these elements are implemented depends on the specific situation, the technical possibilities, and the interests of the participating property owners and residents.
