When it comes to linking battery storage technology with green electricity production, RWE can draw on many years of experience in the energy storage and renewables sector. The company provides project planning, modelling, system integration, and commissioning of the projects in house and under one roof. Beginning of dialog window.
RWE commissioned a large-scale storage facility in December 2024 and February 2025 in North Rhine-Westphalia. A total of 690 blocks of lithium-ion batteries were installed at the Neurath and Hamm sites. By opting for the sites of its existing power plants, RWE is able to take advantage of the synergy of combined technologies.
With the help of 60 battery systems, the new type of storage facility on the site of RWE’s pumped-storage power plant on Lake Hengstey will be able to temporarily store around 4.5 megawatt hours of electricity. The decommissioned batteries provided for the project come from Audi e-tron development vehicles.
Roger Miesen, CEO RWE Generation: “As the proportion of renewables in the electricity mix increases, so does the need for flexible battery storage systems. They balance out fluctuations in the electricity grid in seconds, which means they are the key to a reliable electricity supply.
