An overview of the company

Specialist in flexible power generation

RWE Generation SE is responsible for power generation based on gas, hard coal, hydropower and biomass within the RWE Group. We operate power plants in Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Turkey. The Group is also consolidating its hydrogen activities within RWE Generation.

With our flexible, efficient power plant fleet, we are bridging the gap to the new age of renewables. Gas is becoming more and more important as the bridge between the old energy world and the new age of renewables. In addition, we are doing pioneering work in the field of hydrogen technologies – an essential element for storing renewable energies for times when they are most urgently needed. In the Netherlands in particular, the company is focusing on biomass by converting two hard-coal power plants to this carbon-neutral energy source. RWE is also represented in many core markets with hydropower plants.

By converting our power plants and developing new storage technologies, RWE Generation is making a key contribution to the ambitious goal of RWE as a whole – to be carbon-neutral by 2040.
