history
In 1960, the joint stock company Grazer Stadtwerke AG was founded with the business areas of “Transportation”, “Electricity”, “Gas”, “District Heating” and “Water”. For the first time, town gas was produced using its own oil cracking system. The district heating supply for Graz was started three years later, with the district heating power plant in Graz's Puchstrasse supplying the first customers with heat.
1985 were the company incorporated the operations "Funeral," "sports, leisure facilities and restaurants." In the same year the Grazer Stadtwerke AG took over the company "Ankünder", the "Steiermärkische Ankündigungsgesellschaft mbH". In 2002 the water service company "Styrian Aqua Service GmbH" was founded as a subsidiary of Grazer Stadtwerke AG. Looking ahead to the upcoming spin-off of the energy divisions into “Energie Graz GmbH”, the “Grazer Stadtwerke Energie Holding” was founded. The separation of the areas of electricity, natural gas and district heating into "Energie Graz GmbH" took place on August 1st, 2002. The split-off changed the ownership structure to the extent that since then the city of Graz has 99.84% and the "Grazer Bau- und Grünlandsicherungsgesellschaft" Holds 0.16% of the shares. In 2004, Grazer Stadtwerke AG acquired 100% of Graz Airport .
On June 29, 2010, the general meeting decided to convert Graz AG into a limited liability company. Since October 30, 2010 the company has been operating under the new name Holding Graz - Kommunale Dienstleistungen GmbH .
