ENERGIEALLIANZ Austria GmbH, operating as EAA or Energieallianz Austria, is a prominent Austrian energy sales and trading company headquartered in Vienna. Founded in July 2001 as a joint venture during the liberalization of the Austrian energy market, it was established by Burgenland Energie AG, EVN, and Wien Energie to consolidate their sales, distribution, and trading operations and achieve operational synergies.
The company supplies electricity, natural gas, and related energy services to around 2.6 million customer installations across Austria and Germany, serving households, commercial clients, municipalities, and large industrial users. It manages trading activities on major European exchanges for electricity, natural gas, CO2 certificates, and guarantees of origin. Key group entities and brands include NATURKRAFT Energievertriebsgesellschaft m.b.H. for renewable (Ökostrom) electricity supply and the Switch brand for competitive mass-market offerings. Additional services encompass energy consulting and contracting, particularly for business customers.
Ownership is structured with 45% held by EVN Energieservice GmbH, 45% by WIEN ENERGIE GmbH, and 10% by Burgenland Energie AG. The EAA group employs approximately 140 people and generates annual revenues in the range of 3.2 billion euros, with substantial traded volumes exceeding 50 TWh of electricity in recent reporting periods. It maintains offices in Vienna (headquarters at Vienna Twin Tower), Linz, and Essen, Germany, while actively participating in the energy transition through renewable energy promotion and green hydrogen initiatives, including supplying Austrian renewable electricity via its NATURKRAFT subsidiary to support electrolyzer operations at partner facilities such as those of RAG Austria AG.
