Regionalwerk Chiemgau-Rupertiwinkel (r-cr.de) is a public regional energy company jointly established by 31 municipalities in Bavaria, Germany. Its core mission is to bring regional energy supply back into public ownership and advance a localized decarbonized energy transition. It opened its local green electricity service to local residents and businesses starting in April 2025.
The company's core offerings include:
Current public electricity pricing is transparent: its local green electricity costs 31.98 Euro cents per kWh, with a monthly base fee of 12.86 Euros, and the switching process is simple and straightforward.
Advantages: The project is jointly owned by local municipalities, and all decisions are centered on local public interests. This avoids the issues common with large private energy companies, where profit-seeking leads to inadequate supply in remote areas and decisions disconnected from local needs. By joining forces of small and medium-sized municipalities, it solves the pain point that a single municipality cannot advance large-scale energy projects on its own. All energy revenues stay within the region to support local development, prioritizing public welfare over pure profit.
Disadvantages: The drawbacks are also very clear: service is only open to users in a specific region of Germany, with no plans for external expansion. Most long-term projects are still in the planning phase, service coverage is still being expanded, and only German-language service is offered.
The website only serves residents, businesses, and participating municipalities within the Chiemgau-Rupertiwinkel region of Germany. The site is directly accessible to users in China, purely for reference as a case study of regional energy transition.
