Technical FAQs 4

How does Germany support the development of energy storage facilities?

The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, responsible for energy policy in Germany on the federal level, supports the development of electricity storage facilities. Under the Energy Storage Funding Initiative launched in 2012, funding for the development of energy storage systems has been provided to around 250 projects.

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.

How will Aurubis and Hamburger Energiewerke contribute to the heat transition?

Aurubis and Hamburger Energiewerke are actively shaping the heat transition with the current project and making an important contribution to meeting Hamburg’s climate targets. The heat supply is scheduled to come online in the 2024/25 heating period.
