Engineering Power Conference Sharing knowledge and new ideas

It is the big meeting of colleagues from the entire Axpo Group to discuss the latest developments in their fields. Every year, the Engineering Power Conference at the Axpo Group headquarters in Baden brings several hundred people from the Axpo universe together and focuses on the diversity of the art of engineering.

Whether analyzing large amounts of data, building floating PV systems or developing large battery storage systems, engineering knowledge is required. Knowledge that comes together in autumn every year at the Engineering Power Conference in the Kurtheater Baden. Engineers, project managers, economic researchers and employees from all departments of the Axpo Group meet and listen to their colleagues from a wide variety of departments in around 20 different short speeches. For several years now, we have been providing an exclusive insight into the world of the Engineering Power Conference. The interested community can join in on social media, via Instagram or on Axpo's LinkedIn. And of course, selected speeches will also be made publicly available to the interested public on YouTube.

Every year, we record some of the short presentations and make them available to the interested public on YouTube. Here you can click through various presentations from the last two years and immerse yourself in a wide range of topics from Axpo's energy world.
