Sustainability
Your own energy
from hydropower and photovoltaics
The conversion of our fleet to electric cars means that our energy requirements are constantly increasing. To meet these requirements, we have invested in the construction and expansion of our photovoltaic systems over the last three years. From the end of 2021, we will also be able to count a hydroelectric power plant among our group. This means that nothing stands in the way of refueling electric cars with sustainably generated energy.
The diagram shows the history of the SENN Group. The company was founded in Kufstein in 2001 by Franz Senn Sr. Since then, various companies have joined the group over the years. The highlight of 2023 will be the move to the new warehouse and production hall in Erl, Mühlgraben 43e. This will create space for further growth. Want to know more?
