Flims Electric AG

Flims Electric AG is a Swiss regional multi-utility (Querverbundsunternehmen) based in Flims, in the canton of Graubünden. Its roots go back to 1904, when the Elektrizitätswerk Flims was founded; in 2002 the municipal electricity works was converted into the joint-stock company Flims Electric. The company describes itself as regionally leading in broadband communication and in sustainable electricity generation, working under the motto "sinfonia d'energia". The group operates across several linked utility businesses. It generates electricity and heat from renewable sources such as water, sunlight and wood, and provides services in energy supply, electricity, fibre-optic and heating networks, e-mobility, control systems, metering technology and broadband communication. Its subsidiary Flims Trin Energie AG acts as the local distribution network operator, running the electricity grid in basic supply (Grundversorgung) for households and businesses in Flims and Trin, building and maintaining the network infrastructure, making the house connections for the electricity and communication networks, and handling public street lighting in the supply area. On the telecommunications side, Flims Electric offers broadband internet and TV, marketed with Quickline, and promotes fibre-optic network expansion. It also runs district heating (Fernwärme Flims), e-mobility charging stations and e-bike offerings. The company serves the two Graubünden municipalities of Flims and Trin and positions itself as a forward-looking, regionally anchored employer. Flims Electric is a privately held Aktiengesellschaft. Its ownership is tied to the local municipalities it serves, and it publishes annual reports, key figures and an owner strategy (Eignerstrategie). The company is active and continues to invest in network expansion and renewable generation, with recent communications covering stable 2027 electricity prices, internet subscription offers and the Prau Pulté project.

Flims Electric traces its origins to 1904, when the Elektrizitätswerk Flims was established to supply electricity to the community of Flims in the Swiss canton of Graubünden. For most of the 20th century it operated as a municipal electricity works serving the local area. In 2002 the Elektrizitätswerk Flims was converted into a joint-stock company under the name Flims Electric (Flims Electric AG). This corporatisation allowed the utility to operate as a modern, forward-looking multi-utility (Querverbundsunternehmen) rather than a purely municipal department. Over the following years the company broadened its scope beyond classic electricity distribution into related network and service businesses. A key development was the creation of the subsidiary Flims Trin Energie AG, which took on the role of local distribution network operator for the municipalities of Flims and Trin. It supplies households and businesses with electricity in basic supply (Grundversorgung), builds and maintains the grid infrastructure, makes the house connections for both the electricity and communication networks, and is responsible for the construction and upkeep of public lighting in the supply area. Alongside electricity, Flims Electric developed renewable heat and power generation, using water, sunlight and wood, and expanded into district heating with Fernwärme Flims. It also moved into telecommunications, offering broadband internet and TV in cooperation with Quickline and investing in fibre-optic network expansion. More recently it has added e-mobility services such as charging stations and e-bike offerings, and provides services in control systems and metering technology. The company operates under the motto "sinfonia d'energia" and describes itself as regionally leading in broadband communication and sustainable electricity production. It publishes annual reports, key figures and an owner strategy, reflecting its municipal ownership structure. Recent public communications include stable electricity prices for 2027, flexible internet subscription options, and progress on the Prau Pulté project.
