🌬️ Wind of Change at Lengerich 🌀 Lengerich's landscape has just been redefined - and it's a stunning stride for green energy! RWE's repowering project transformed the old wind turbine into a powerhouse, quadrupling energy output 🏗️💨. The leap from 1.8 to an impressive 5.7 MW means a leap in homes powered—from 1,000 to a robust 4,000! Behind the scenes? A synergy of expertise and tech. RWE and partners executed a masterclass in modernisation 🔧, showcasing a two-decade legacy of wind energy at Lengerich. Route optimisation and specialised transport are just glimpses of the meticulous planning for those mammoth 80-metre blades. But it's not just about the megawatts. This project paints a picture of how an energy giant can fuel local economies. Emsland's vision isn't confined to kilowatt hours—it extends to a generous climate bonus for surrounding communities, amplifying their annual income 🌍💚. As we look at RWE's ongoing mission, it's clear they're redefining the German renewable landscape, farm by farm, MW by MW. Their dedication to sustainable progress and local enrichment speaks volumes about the trajectory of wind energy innovation. 🌬️🔋 Have thoughts on the evolving face of renewables?

According to a recent International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and International Labour Organization report, global #renewable energy jobs increased by 18% from 13.7 million in 2022 to 16.2 million in 2023! The #solar PV sector is the largest contributor, supporting 7.2 million jobs worldwide. Despite overall growth, some regions remain underrepresented in the sector. In total, there are only 324,000 renewable jobs across #Africa. The report emphasises the importance of investing in education and training to prepare the workforce for the energy transition. https://lnkd.in/eynn8MuB

𝗥𝗪𝗘 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟰𝗚𝗪 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 🌊⚡ RWE and TotalEnergies have teamed up to develop two major offshore wind farms off the German coast, with a total capacity of 4GW. This partnership is a key move in advancing Germany's renewable energy ambitions and strengthening Europe's offshore wind sector. Building on their successful collaboration with the OranjeWind project in the Netherlands, this joint venture brings together extensive expertise in offshore wind development. With projects expected to be operational between 2031 and 2032, the two wind farms will significantly boost Germany's offshore wind capacity. The partnership highlights the growing momentum in the offshore wind industry, as key players collaborate to meet ambitious climate goals and push the boundaries of clean energy production. Exciting times ahead for the offshore wind industry as Germany accelerates its path toward a greener future! #RWE #TotalEnergies #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #RoCConsult #GreenFuture #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #ProjectManagement #EnergyTransition

🌬️ In need of an inspiring onshore wind success story? 🇩🇪 Germany is well on track to award 10 GW of #onshorewind this year. The Government's measures to simplify and speed up #permitting prove successful. 🏆 In the oversubscribed latest onshore wind auction round a record 3 GW of new onshore wind projects bid in. 2.7 GW of them were awarded at an average price of €73.3/MWh. 🏭 That's good news for Germany's #energy security and competitiveness. 💪 And it's a display of strength and optimism from the German wind industry. It means that Germany has already awarded around 8 GW of new onshore wind this year - with another auction round on 1 November. The auction volume in this last round of 2024 must now be big enough to get all projects with valid permits off the ground and reach the 10 GW target. Bundesverband WindEnergie e.V.

🚀 Renewables are on the rise, and here’s what it means for us! 🌍 Since today is the Day of Renewables, let’s zoom into Germany’s ambitious plan: 1. Massive Expansion: By 2045, Germany aims for nearly 400 GW of solar capacity and a sharp increase in wind power. 🌞💨 2. Crucial Storage Needs: With high renewable intake, daily energy management demands around 280 GWh of storage capacity by 2045 to keep the lights on. 📉🌙 3. Seasonal Shifts: As RES surpasses 80%, long-term storage isn’t just nice to have; it’s a must. ⏳🔄 🔍 What’s your take? How are you preparing for these shifts in renewable energy and storage demands? #RenewableEnergy #EnergyStorage #Sustainability #FutureIsBright #Innovation

Luxcara secured 1.5 GW, while RWE won 4 GW. Despite the scale, industry concerns have emerged due to limited bids and a lack of transparency. Only five bids were submitted, raising questions about investor interest. Critics, including the German Wind Energy Association, emphasized the need for more transparency and supportive policies to ensure the sector's growth. #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #Germany #RWE #Luxcara #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #RoCConsult #EnergyTransition #Bundesnetzagentur

Good news coming out of Germany this week 🔋 In order to achieve their 80% renewable energy goals across Germany it's estimated that a further 100GW-hours of Battery Storage is needed by 2030. In response to this, Quantitas Energy & VPI have come together to invest €450 million into the German BESS market. Ten 60MW projects have been suggested but it's only a small drop in the Ocean and a lot more is needed to reach the deadline in 2030. Hopefully this investment from companies outside of Germany will inspire similar companies to follow suit! With more German BESS Projects we will need more Engineers, Project Managers and Grid Managers to implement these projects...

🌬️Fresh wind from the North Sea Another important step towards achieving our climate targets: In future, almost half of the annual electricity requirements of Ensinger's German plants will be covered by renewable energy from wind power. To this end, Ensinger has signed a ten-year power purchase agreement with RWE Supply & Trading. In future, we will purchase just under 30 gigawatt hours per year from RWE's Kaskasi wind farm off the coast of Helgoland. "We want to achieve our climate targets by credible means," says Klaus Ensinger, Head of Sustainability, "and that's why it was important to us that the supply is sourced directly and from a newly installed renewable energy plant." Extensive preparatory work was required before the contract could be signed. Ensinger received excellent support from the experts at Berlin-based enervis energy advisors GmbH. #renewableenery #netzero #todayfortomorrow #ensingerplastics (Picture: RWE)
