Germany Hamburg incremental distribution network energy storage project

4 FAQs about Germany Hamburg incremental distribution network energy storage project

How did Hamburger Energiewerke get funding?

Hamburger Energiewerke received funding from BAFA as part of the Model Project Heat Network Systems 4.0 (Module II) program. The Hamburg Investment and Development Bank (IFB Hamburg) also provided funding for the HEnW project in keeping with the “Companies for Resource Conservation” funding guidelines.

How does Hamburger Energiewerke deliver industrial heat?

The heat can then be fed into the over 860-kilometer city network using a network pump system. To deliver the industrial heat to Hamburg households, Hamburger Energiewerke is using an existing enercity Contracting Nord GmbH pipeline to cover the first segment from the Aurubis plant to the Elbe River crossing.

What smart grid technologies are available in Hamburg?

The selection of smart grid technologies for investigation was done by examining their availability in the HafenCity and the Port of Hamburg. This includes established energy storage solutions like pumped hydro storage systems. Hereby, the hydro pump station near the city of Hamburg is used to provide realistic data.

Does Germany need energy storage systems?

While around 254 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity were generated from renewable energy in Germany in 2022, 600 TWh of electricity are expected to come from renewable sources by 2030. Germany is particularly dependent on a market ramp-up of energy storage systems, especially battery storage systems. What role do energy storage systems play?
