The North Rhine-Westphalian State Environment Minister, Johannes Remmel, summarised the results of a feasibility study for an underground pumped-storage power station at the Prosper-Haniel mine near the city of Bottrop in a few words: \u201cProsper-Haniel could be transformed from a mine into a power station and then into a battery\u201d. He presented the first part of the study alongside Chairman of the Board at RAG Bernd T\u00f6njes, Prof. Dr. Andr\u00e9 Niemann from the University of Duisburg-Essen, Prof. Dr. Hermann-Josef Wagner from the Ruhr University in Bochum and Manager of the Prosper-Haniel mine J\u00fcrgen Kroker. The Minister awarded a grant notification to the sum of 850,000 \u20ac from the federal government and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia for the second part of the study (Figure 1).<\/p>\n

Prof. Niemann explained that the initial results were optimistic. \u201cThe coal mining industry has the infrastructure and expertise required for an underground pumped-storage reservoir,\u201d emphasised Bernd T\u00f6njes. The Mayor of Bottrop, Bernd Tischler, also added that a pumped-storage power station would dovetail extremely well with the Bottrop Innovation City project.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the new grant notification, plans can now be drawn up for the specific suitability of Prosper-Haniel as an underground pumped-storage reservoir and framework conditions for its use. (RAG \/Si.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
