Ruhrverband relies on solar energy: 15 million euros for new projects!
Hattingen, Deutschland - The Ruhrverband has presented Ambitouus plans to advance energy neutrality. In a comprehensive photovoltaic offensive, large solar systems are to be built on eight sewage treatment plants in the next few years. Among other things, this includes a 24,000 square meter open space on the sewage treatment plant in Hattingen, where around 15,000 square meters of solar panels are to be installed. The investment amount for these projects amounts to up to 15 million euros.
The approval process for the projects is currently being prepared and construction is aimed for for the third quarter of 2026. These measures are part of the efforts of the Ruhrverband, not only in the annual balance sheet, but every quarter of an hour of a year. In 2024, more regenerative energy was generated for the second time than is required for your own needs, which is a significant contribution to climate protection, such as euwid-wasser.de reported.
improvement in sewage treatment plants
In addition to the photovoltaic initiative, the Ruhrverband was able to increase the cleaning performance of the sewage treatment plants, so that almost all waters in the Ruhr catchment area have good or very good condition. This is done as part of a careful financial interpretation, since the Ruhrverband is financed by membership fees that are based on benefits. The annual association assembly, which took place in Essen, included delegates from 60 cities and municipalities as well as drinking waterworks and industrial companies in the catchment area of the Ruhr.The membership fees develop moderately for 2025, despite an increasingly difficult economic environment. The premium increase for wastewater treatment is 3.4 percent and for the water provision at 2.4 percent, such as radioenneperuhr.de reported.
