Our mission is to transport gases safely, reliably and sustainably - today, and in the future.
We are in the midst of a transformation; while natural gas is still flowing through our pipelines today, in the future we want to use them to transport hydrogen and other green gases. We are thus actively helping to shape a climate-neutral future.

Read moreThyssengas is deeply rooted in the Ruhr region – this is where our history began over 100 years ago. In this region we have always been a reliable partner for large industries as well as for small and medium-sized businesses. Our high-performance transmission grid forms the backbone of the efficient, safe and reliable energy infrastructure for our region.
At present, we supply municipal utilities, industrial plants and power stations with around six billion cubic metres of natural gas per year. At the same time, we are undergoing the biggest transformation in our company's history. While natural gas is still flowing through our pipelines, in the future, this will however mainly be green gases, such as, hydrogen and biogas.
Hydrogen
We are bringing H2 to the region
Hydrogen is the energy source of the future and it can make a significant contribution to energy supply security and decarbonisation. However, a prerequisite for this is high-performance infrastructure to enable reliable H2 transmission. We believe that our pipeline system can assume this role. It is widely branched in western Germany and strategically located close to wind and solar parks as well as industrial sites; it will nevertheless need certain adjustments before it is ready to transport hydrogen.
Biogas
Our focus is on green gases
Besides hydrogen, there are other gaseous molecules that will also form a key part of energy supply security in the future. That is why we are focussing on a variety of green gases and are increasingly feeding biogas into our pipeline grid. We believe that biogas can make a valuable contribution to climate protection and the security of supply.
Natural gas
We guarantee energy supply security
As a grid operator, the reliable supply of energy is our top priority; here, natural gas is the bridge to a climate-neutral future. We can guarantee continuous energy transmission with natural gas until hydrogen and other green gases gradually replace fossil energy sources.
Sustainability
Keeping tomorrow in mind
As we transition to hydrogen and other green gases, sustainability is gradually becoming the focus of our business model. The process of transforming our business is simultaneously contributing towards the transformation of entire sectors of the economy. Our vision of sustainability is a holistic one that combines corporate responsibility at the environmental, economic and social levels.
