125 years of company history presented digitally
To mark the 125th anniversary of SUDenergie, a special project has been launched: a new website now offers, for the first time, a comprehensive digital documentation of our company’s history – from its beginnings to the present day.
A Scientifically Grounded Project
In collaboration with the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) at the University of Luxembourg, the company’s history has been researched and presented in accordance with modern academic standards. The research project is funded by SUDenergie and carried out by the C²DH, with additional support from the University’s MEDIACentre.
Insights into 125 Years of Company History
The new website provides an engaging and multimedia-rich gateway into the history of SUDenergie. Visitors will find:
- a chronological overview of key events since the company’s founding in 1899
- numerous historical documents and photographs, many published for the first time
- video interviews with eyewitnesses
- a digital version of preserved worker registries
- background articles on the history of the gas industry in the canton of Esch
Experiencing History Digitally
With this project, we aim not only to honour our past and all those who helped shape it, but also to contribute to the local industrial heritage. The website is intended for anyone interested in the development of energy supply, the history of the region, and the people behind SUDenergie.
Please note: This project is conducted in German, and the linked website is available in German only.
