Today, 50Hertz put the 380-kV overhead line between Stendal West and Wolmirstedt into operation which increases the transmission capacity for the integration of wind power. This line is the first part of the newly constructed replacement for a 220-kV overhead line between Güstrow in the Rostock area and Wolmirstedt, near Magdeburg, which was built in the 1950s.

At the start of the Petersberg Climate Dialogue, which begins today, a wide alliance of companies spoke out in favour of an ambitious climate policy at the national and international level. 50Hertz, too, joined the call for action by Stiftung 2 Grad.

As a company responsible for a critical infrastructure, 50Hertz takes the risks posed by the corona virus (COVID-19) very seriously. To us the safety and health of our employees is extremely important. We have therefore taken preventive measures to protect our employees from infection with the corona virus and to maintain business and system operations.
