Grid developement

50Hertz is currently planning and implementing a number of transmission line projects to strengthen its grid and to connect Germany better with the electricity grids of neighbouring countries. We are also connecting offshore wind farms in the Baltic Sea to our transmission grid.

Here you can find information on the current status of our projects onshore and offshore. On the grid development map you will find all projects in the 50Hertz grid area at a glance:

50Hertz as a partner in the EU-funded BESTGRID project

Together with nine partners from all over Europe, 50Hertz worked on the BESTGRID project from April 2013 to October 2015. In five European grid expansion projects, new ways were tested to cooperate and spread information in the field. In BESTGRID, 50Hertz committed itself by contributing to the explanation of electric and magnetic fields in the scope of the grid expansion project of the grid 380 kV overhead line Bertikow-Pasewalk. Other partners in the EU-funded project under the guidance of the Renewables Grid Initiative (RGI) included Deutsche Umwelthilfe, Nabu Deutschland and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA).

More information about BESTGRID and the 50Hertz pilot project can be found here:

Compensations for municipalities

50Hertz financially compensates municipalities that are directly affected by the grid expansion for the resulting inconvenience. The conditions for these payments are determined in the Electricity Network Charges Ordinance (Stromnetzentgeltverordnung or StromNEV, §5(4)). In doing so, 50Hertz compensates the negative effects felt by citizens as a result of the transmission system's expansion that is required in the scope of the energy transition.
