      Expertise

      for enewable energy

      In the HASSLACHER Group, sustainability is the top priority not only when it comes to raw materials, but also regarding the use of energy. That is why we are proud that we generate energy from hydropower, photovoltaics and biomass from renewable sources.

      Biomass

      Renewable, modern, powerful - energy from biomass is provided by the complete use of  wood as a resource. What is not processed into wooden boards, glued beams, formwork panels etc. is returned to the energy cycle as biomass or pellets.

      In its own biomass power plants, the HASSLACHER group converts more than 300,000 tons of biomass into renewable energy for drying wood and generating electricity every year. This is fed into the public power grid as green electricity, among other things, and supplies the local district heating network of Sachsenburg and Möllbrücke that has more than 200 households.

      Photovoltaics

      The HASSLACHER group has been using photovoltaics for many years and took on a pioneering role in this area at an early stage. In 2015, the company received the Austrian Solar Prize for its commitment to renewable energies. Photovoltaic systems have been installed at the Sachsenburg, Stall, Hermagor, Rangersdorf and Preding sites.

      Hydropower

      The HASSLACHER group has been operating a small hydroelectric power plant on the river Lieser in Spittal an der Drau since 1946. This Carinthian river has its source in the rear Pöllatal and makes its way through the Pöllatal, Katschtal and Liesertal valleys before flowing into the river Drau below Spittal an der Drau.

      The hydroelectric power plant is equipped with a fish ladder that enables fish to overcome a height difference of up to five metres.
