Buchrain - Çalik Enerji Swiss AG is expanding its activities in Switzerland and has now opened a new branch in Buchrain in the canton of Lucerne. This year, the energy company, which is part of the global Çalik Enerji Group in Turkey, is planning to create around 20 new jobs at this site.
The municipality of Buchrain has announced that Çalik Enerji Swiss AG has established a new branch at the Reussperle site. The company was originally founded in 2017 as part of the Pathfinding Initiative set up by the Swiss Export Risk Insurance (SERV). Çalik Enerji Swiss AG is part of the Turkish Çalik Enerji Group, an internationally active energy holding company. In its role as general contractor, the company plans and realizes turnkey infrastructure projects such as power plants, pumping stations, oil and gas production facilities, transmission lines and water treatment plants.
According to the municipality, the group will seek to gradually expand and develop its activities in Switzerland. By the end of 2025, approximately 20 qualified job roles are to be created in areas such as technology, finance, procurement management, planning and project development. There are also plans for further expansion in 2026.
«We are pleased about the new jobs and the strategic development this will bring for our community», comments Patrick Bieri, who serves on the municipal council. «With Çalik Enerji, we become a bit more international» and have gained a partner that «combines sustainability with innovation», he adds.
«The Reussperle development», as the municipality explains further, offers Çalik Enerji Swiss AG the «ideal conditions for growth»: modern premises, excellent accessibility and the potential to leverage synergies with nearby companies. The cantonal government, municipal council and the cantonal economic development agency are jointly and «proactively» supporting this project.
