The company produces around 2,350 Gigawatt hours of electricity annually, which represents about 7% of the country's total hydroelectric energy production.The Handeckfluh small power plant is to utilize the previously unused gradient between Mattenalpsee and the Handeckfluh moated castle. With an investment of 22.5 million SFr., a completely underground plant with a capacity of 10 MW can be built, which would produce 24 GWh annually. The application for the construction permit was submitted in 2017.The company also owns the Meiringen–Innertkirchen railway, the Gelmerbahn funicular, and the Sidelhornbahn, Triftbahn and Tällibahn aerial lifts. All of these were originally built to assist the construction and maintenance of its hydroelectric plants, but now provide transport for local residents and/or tourists. Additionally the Kraftwerke Oberhasli operates and maintains the Reichenbachfall Funicular, although this is owned by the neighbouring EWR Energie company. Standseilbahn Handegg–Wasserschloss Handeggfluh Ärlen was operated 1948 to 2015. Standseilbahn Urweid–Chapf has been operated since 1940, but not opened to the public.
KWO employs 530 people, or a total of 364 full-time jobs.
