Our transmission grid
Reliable energy supply today and tomorrow
We have been supplying western Germany with energy for over a century. Our pipeline network, which is around 4,400 kilometres long, transports around six billion cubic metres of natural gas to municipal utilities, industrial plants and power stations every year. In order to secure the energy supply in the future, we are gradually converting our network to hydrogen and other green gases such as biogas and expanding it as required. Because we see ourselves as a reliable partner for a sustainable energy supply in western Germany - today and tomorrow.
Gas transport
Hydrogen
Hydrogen is the energy carrier of the future and can make a significant contribution to security of supply and decarbonisation. However, this requires an efficient and reliable transport infrastructure. We are convinced that our long-distance pipeline network can fulfil this role. Widely branched in western Germany and strategically located close to wind and solar parks as well as industrial sites, it is ready for the transport of hydrogen with certain adjustments.
Gas transport
Biogas
In addition to hydrogen, other gaseous molecules also play a decisive role in the future energy supply. We are therefore focussing on a variety of green gases and are increasingly feeding biogas into our pipeline network. We are convinced that biogas makes a valuable contribution to climate protection and security of supply.
