RWE

Since 2022, the former cooling pond at our Amercentrale power plant in the Netherlands has been home to our first floating solar project worldwide. Its 13,400 panels, covering 3.8 hectares, can power the equivalent of more than 1,500 Dutch homes annually with green electricity. A testament to our ambition to drive forward the energy transition in an innovative way!

For over a decade now, our Swedish offshore wind farm, Karehamn, has been supplying electricity to the equivalent of 34,000 households annually. ⚡️ From the top of its 80-meter-high turbines, you can see the vast expanse of the Baltic Sea. Quite impressive, right? Tag along with us to see the view from the harbour. 👀

Dear US colleagues: Today is a special day, I’m wishing all of you a happy 4th of July. Just a few weeks ago, I had the chance to visit the US, our colleagues, and sites. Seeing and hearing about all our projects and ambitions first-hand really highlighted the brilliant progress we are making. We are one of the leading renewables companies in the US, and you are the ones further driving and growing that business. As you take the time today to celebrate and enjoy a lovely time with friends, family and loved ones, I would like to thank you for all your incredible passion and commitment. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday!

Pushing the boundaries of solar power, taking it offshore! ⚡ RWE and SolarDuck have successfully installed Merganser, an offshore floating solar pilot project. Located in the Dutch North Sea, Merganser will test the structural and electrical design to deepen our knowledge about the operation of offshore solar technology in harsh offshore conditions. This innovative technology could open up further offshore renewable energy opportunities. 

June was Pride Month! 🏳️🌈    At RWE we believe that all employees have the right to express their identity in the workplace.    "In our network people from the LGBT*IQ community and their allies support each other, raise awareness beyond the network about the importance of treating each other fairly and respectfully and thus help make RWE an LGBT*IQ-inclusive employer." Michaela, co-founder and co-chair person Germany of the LGBT*IQ & Friends network at RWE.   Swipe right to see how we celebrated our employees throughout the month across the globe. 🌏 👉    Your energy has impact.

We have a "soft spot" for new technology! The 40.8-MW Rea Unificado onshore wind project is our largest and most powerful in Spain to date. And what's more, by using ‘Soft-Spot®' foundations for the first time, we were able to set new standards. Here, so-called reinforced concrete spread foundations distribute the wind turbine's load over a donut-shaped surface. This increases the stability of the turbine, while significantly reducing CO2 emissions during the construction phase. Dive in to learn more 👇

RWE takes third place! 🥉    The annual Dragon Boat Festival took place on the regatta course at Baldeneysee in Essen. Led by team captain Florian de Wal, Commodity Flow Desk, the team performed outstandingly over three preliminary races followed by the final.    And their winning spirit wasn't just on the water - they donated €1,000 to the "Be Strong For Kids Goes School" project. Congratulations to our Dragon Boat team and a big thank you for their generous contribution! 👏    Your energy has impact. Use it for good.

It's always sunny at Intersolar Europe. ☀️ Our colleague Kyle David Ryan was among those who made their way to Munich for the solar industry's leading exhibition. The days were packed with catching up with colleagues and industry peers, and Kyle also took to the stage to share some insights. 🚀 He graciously let us tag along. Let's look back at this year's event! 🎥
