Who is Open Grid Europe? What is necessary to ensure safe gas transportation? How large is our network and who controls it? What is a compressor and how does it function? Our film "At the Core of Gas Transmission" gives you a clear idea of our business.

In natural gas transmission, safety begins with our technical systems. In this respect, we differentiate between structural and organisational safety measures.
[February 2012]
When constructing a new pipeline, we at Open Grid Europe extensively address the issue of safety - long before the fist natural gas pipe is even laid in the ground.

In natural gas transmission - as with any conventional form of transportation - it is important to know how much can be transported from A to B. Find out exactly how natural gas is transmitted in this informative video.

A new natural gas pipeline is under construction: from Rimpar in the North of Bavaria to Sannerz in Hesse. The pipeline route, with a length of about 67 kilometres, runs mainly through agricultural areas.
[March 2014]
Experience a bird’s eye view of the construction of the new Sannerz-Rimpar loop line in Bavaria, where around 67 kilometers of pipeline comprising 3,800 steel pipes cross steep slopes, rivers and railway tracks.
[January 2014]
At around 12,000 km, Open Grid Europe operates Germany’s largest high-pressure gas pipeline system. We ensure security of supply for millions of consumers: in an efficient, environmentally friendly and, above all, safe manner.

The energy transition has consequences for all players in the market, and as a result costs have been rising. Individual stakeholders like Open Grid Europe are responding to this development in very different ways. Gas trading and storage, transmission capacities and, not least, costs: our video shows you what links up to what and how Open Grid Europe is attempting to counter the cost explosion resulting from the energy transformation with efficient products and intelligent solutions.

The consequences of the energy transitionThe ending of this E-world means the next E-world is coming up for us. Our short film is supposed to give you a taste of what you could see at the upcoming E-world. Convince yourself at the E-world in Essen from 6 - 8 February 2018. You can find our joint NCG stand No. 418 in hall 2. We are looking forward to see you!
