In Switzerland, scientists are feverishly working on a process of nuclear phase-out. The new energy centre “Forsthaus” in Bern is an significant milestone in this journey. From the middle of 2012 onwards, the power plant will begin its start-up phases and should be fully operational by 2013.

There is always a continuous coming and going at company lorry parks. It is therefore important for dispatchers and plant management to have access to comprehensive information on available vehicles.

The Wietersdorfer Group operates numerous ready-mixed mortar plants at different locations. In order to maintain and develop their strong market position, constant investments are necessary.
At the beginning of 2012, the plants in Wietersdorf and Peggau will be equipped with the next generation of production control technology from Rudolf Berthold Ges. m.b.H.

They are commonplace among the idyllic freshwater pathways of Austria: more than 2,600 small-scale hydro-electric power plants.
What you might not know: these power plants provide for 9% of the total electricity consumption in Austria – which equates to more than 50% of all domestic requirements.

The new customer service centre for Wien Energie in Spittelau/Vienna is close to completion. This office complex covering an area of 1,090 m2 will provide competent customer service advice from spring 2012 onwards.
How has Rudolf Berthold Ges.m.b.H been involved?

Across the globe, research is being carried out into methods to deal with the high pressure to find solutions for resource-saving processes. A company from Austria is one of the forerunners in this research and has proven its stature through numerous implemented projects.
Advantages in experience of environmental technology and experience gained from practical implementation has made Austria one of the most secure and economically-sound choices.

The EVN thermal waste processing plant in Dürnrohr/Lower Austria supplies 170,000 households with heating and electricity every year.
The energy required is generated from up to 500,000 tonnes of waste which is recovered through thermal processing. This process is unique on a global scale. 90% of the waste required is delivered by rail – which saves 40,000 HGV journeys every year.

The Wieterdorfer Group is therefore developing its presence in the Russian market: a ready-mixed concrete plant will begin operation in St. Petersburg in mid 2011.

The principle is simple: 200 m³/h input raw biogas and approx. 1 mi. cubic metres of high-quality biogas output per year. (Before you get your calculators out, 1.7 m³ of raw gas can product 1m³ or pure biogas.) These are the fundamental statistics of the new biogas plant in Wiener Neustadt/Lower Austria, which is currently the largest plant of its type in Lower Austria.

March 15 was an important date for many companies:
This was the deadline for the reporting of the transport data for deliveries, transfers and shipments from waste treatment plants to the authorities.
In short: it was time for EDM reporting.
