District heating Göschenen by mountain pipeline

A mountain ridge and a 330-metre difference in altitude separate the two Uri villages of Göschenen and Andermatt. Whilst Andermatt has established itself as a popular holiday resort, Göschenen is better known as a stop-off point before the Gotthard Tunnel on the way to Ticino. What many people don’t realise is that Göschenen knows how to harness the power of nature to generate energy – and to send heat from renewable energy sources through the mountain.
