The company
Who is Thyssengas?
As a transmission system operator, Thyssengas has been ensuring the reliable supply of gas to municipal utilities, industrial plants and power stations in western Germany for over 100 years. With our approximately 4,400 kilometre-long gas network, the heart of which is located in North Rhine-Westphalia, we are one of the leading transmission system operators in the country. Our more than 550 employees at seven locations - with headquarters in Dortmund - have been focussing on natural gas transport for decades. But now we are facing the biggest transformation in our company's history: step by step, we are preparing our network for the transport of hydrogen and other green gases.
About us
We transport energy
Thyssengas is a child of the Ruhr region - our history began here over 100 years ago. We have always been a reliable partner for industry and SMEs in the region. Our high-performance pipeline network supplies municipal utilities, industrial plants and power stations with around six billion cubic metres of natural gas every year. At the same time, we are driving forward a climate-neutral future: we will gradually convert our network for the transport of hydrogen and other green gases and expand it if necessary. We are actively shaping the energy transition.
Responsibility
It's about more than a pipeline
The days of natural gas are numbered. The transition to sustainable energy sources is the key to a sustainable economy and achieving our climate targets. As a transmission system operator, we are also convinced of this and are focussing on the transport of hydrogen and other green gases in the future. In doing so, we are taking responsibility for the energy transition and a climate-neutral future.
