Germany’s biggest stadium just got an upgrade! 🏟️ We’ve installed over 11,000 solar modules on the roof of SIGNAL IDUNA PARK, home of Borussia Dortmund. This PV system offers a capacity of over 5 MW - a world record as the most powerful photovoltaic installation ever built on a stadium roof. ⚡️ A complementary battery storage system with a capacity of 3.7 MWh will be completed in early 2026. Covering around half of the stadium’s electricity needs, this partnership not only promotes sustainability but also drives the energy transition in professional sports.

From five to three: We’ve just started repowering our onshore wind farm in Calle, Lower Saxony. The three new turbines will have a combined capacity of over 17 MW – almost twice as much as before. Dismantling of the old turbines is already underway, and the new ones are set to go into operation by the end of 2026. But repowering is only part of what makes this project truly sustainable. We’re reusing the concrete from the old foundations to build the access roads for the new wind farm. One of the existing towers will even find a new home in another project, while the remaining materials will be recycled appropriately. From orchards and hedgerows to woodland areas – we’re preserving all current ecological compensation zones and adding new biodiversity measures, such as flowering strips. All of this is bringing us closer to making renewable energy not only more powerful, but also more resource-efficient. ♻️

Safety is more than a rule, it’s a shared responsibility. 👷♀️⚡ Across RWE sites, our teams make safety part of everything they do. From isolating electrical systems to using the right protective equipment and maintaining clear work zones.

We’re proud to celebrate Emily, our Asset Optimization Director at RWE Clean Energy, who has been honoured with the Trailblazer Award by the Society of Women Engineers. And that’s not all. The global SWE team she chaired has also received the SWE Mission Award, Gold Level, recognizing their accomplishments during her term. 🥇    November marks National Career Development Month in the US, and we’re kicking it off with a huge win. This award celebrates women who make outstanding contributions in engineering and related fields. Emily exemplifies technical excellence, leadership, and dedication to both her profession and community. She truly embodies the spirit of this award.    Congratulations, Emily! 👏    Your energy has impact at #TeamRWE   https://lnkd.in/dGJh4n5Z    #OurEnergyHasImpact #CareerDevelopmentMonth #WomenInSTEM #SWE 

The German economy continues to make progress toward low-carbon business models. And RWE once again ranks among the frontrunners, maintaining a leading position in an increasingly ambitious field. These are the findings from a recent study by Union Investment, evaluating the climate strategies of DAX-40 companies across four dimensions: transparency, ambition, incentives, and reduction. What makes this study particularly valuable is that it places emphasis not only on current performance, but on the pace of transformation and the credibility of long-term implementation. We remain firmly committed to executing our strategy and transforming our business: from a fossil-fuelled focused power generator to a driving force toward a low-carbon, affordable and secure energy system. Our commitment to our clearly defined goal—becoming net zero by 2040—remains strong. Overall, this is another testament to the dedication and excellence of our entire team. Thank you.

If there were a yearbook for the energy transition, our sites would be voted “most likely to succeed.” Across technologies, each of our projects is setting new standards for clean, flexible and reliable energy generation. While we’d love to give every site an award, today we’re shining a spotlight on some of our biggest and brightest.   Click through to meet the winners!

RWE has completed construction of its first project in Louisiana, the 100 MW Lafitte Solar project in Ouachita Parish, just outside Monroe. Lafitte Solar will deliver reliable, affordable, locally produced energy to power Meta’s operations through a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and generate enough electricity to serve 17,000 homes and businesses across the region. The project will also generate about $32 million in regional tax revenue, supporting schools and community organizations, while promoting sustainable land use through native vegetation and agrivoltaics with local sheep grazing. Lafitte Solar is part of RWE’s growing portfolio—advancing reliable power generation while delivering tangible benefits to local communities.  

This World Kindness Day, we’re celebrating the small moments that make a big difference. At RWE, we collaborate, support one another, and create a workplace where everyone feels valued. ✨ A smile, a homemade treat, a kind word, or even a handwritten note can go a long way in lifting someone’s mood and spreading positivity at work. 🌟 Tag a colleague who’s shown you kindness and let them know they’re appreciated! 💬 Your energy has impact at #TeamRWE https://lnkd.in/drgpeQbk    Daniela Maximilian Natali #OurEnergyHasImpact #WorldKindnessDay
