Quotes: "Sustainable heat from the Upper Rhine Graben is an important building block for implementing the energy transition. The municipalities involved in the new "Projektentwicklungsgesellschaft Regionaler Wärmeverbund" (PEG) are convinced of this. The company was founded on Friday in Bretten. It is to prepare the development of a regional heating network."

"There is no way around the expansion of deep geothermal energy if one wants price-stable, climate-neutral heat from the region in the long term, says a press release from the heat association. In this way, it would be possible to make oneself independent of supra-regional energy companies and keep a large part of the added value in the district."

"The three municipal utilities of Bruchsal, Ettlingen and Bretten as well as their joint BBE Energie GmbH are involved in the newly founded PEG."

Quotes: "On Friday, the "Projektentwicklungsgesellschaft Regionaler Wärmeverbund" (PEG) was founded in Bretten's town hall. The company is to prepare the construction of the regional heat network, which has been much discussed for months."

"All those involved are convinced that the possibility of using heat from deep geothermal energy is a great privilege in the Upper Rhine Graben and that there is no way around the expansion of this climate-friendly form of energy."


3) Central step in regional heat expansion

Quotes: "The next major step on this path will be the founding of a project development company Regionaler Wärmeverbund GmbH und Co. KG (PEG) on June 23, in which the municipal utilities and the town of Bretten will be joined by other towns, municipalities and municipal utilities from the Karlsruhe district, as well as the Environment and Energy Agency.""The main objective of the company is to prepare a feasibility study by the end of the year on a heat route leading from the geothermal power plants in Dettenheim and Graben-Neudorf, which are currently in the planning or construction stage, via an existing plant in Bruchsal to Bretten."
