Thyssengas image film

We are not just a transmission system operator. We are Thyssengas. We ensure a secure energy supply in North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony and at the same time work towards the transport of hydrogen and other green gases. This is how we are actively shaping the energy transition in western Germany - here, where we have been at home for over 100 years.

Thyssengas as an employer

What makes Thyssengas a digital, innovative and sustainable employer? What is Thyssengas' unique selling point? Jörg Kamphaus and Gabriele Blank provide answers to this question as part of the "Employer Branding I 120 Days" campaign organised by Digital Campus Zollverein e. V.

Completion of the Datteln-Herne natural gas transmission pipeline

Since 2017, we have taken you with us step by step - from the planning approval to the construction phase and completion of our new natural gas transport pipeline from Datteln to Herne. Thyssengas has now successfully put the new pipeline into operation.

100 years of company history in four minutes

This film by designer and video artist Michael Herling takes a look back at key milestones in our company history and gives an idea of the direction we will take in the coming century. Namely "With energy into the future"!

Saxophone duet with the pipeline

Thyssengas GmbH provided information on the current status of its project to build a natural gas transport pipeline from Datteln to Herne - accompanied by a musical performance by saxophonist Ralf Hartung

Microtunnelling process in Herne

We are currently using a 24-tonne drilling rig to pass under the Rhine-Herne Canal and the Emscher river in order to construct a 400 metre long tunnel for the planned natural gas pipeline.

Monitoring critical infrastructure

We are planning to utilise the innovative possibilities of drones in the future to make the aerial surveillance of our network more efficient and environmentally friendly

Explanatory video: What do the colours of hydrogen mean?

Wiebke Neuhaus, environmental engineer and consultant for network partners and technical contracts at Thyssengas, explains why colours are attributed to hydrogen and what this has to do with its production.

Explanatory video: The technical requirements for converting pipelines from natural gas to H2

In this video, Nikolai Hochbein, Energy Transition Operations Engineer at Thyssengas, explains what the properties of hydrogen (H2) and natural gas, or more correctly methane (CH4), mean for the conversion of our pipelines.

Explanatory video: How safe is it to transport hydrogen through pipelines?

The Thyssengas pipeline network can be converted for H2 transport with little effort. Marcel Tilly, operating engineer for high-pressure gas pipelines at Thyssengas, explains how such a conversion works in the video.
