Preparatory work for the planning approval procedure from February to fall 2025. Largest hydrogen pipeline project in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
Kassel. As part of the Flow – making hydrogen happen program, GASCADE Gastransport GmbH (GASCADE) is planning to build a hydrogen pipeline around 120 kilometers long from Rostock to Wrangelsburg. This pipeline is to receive hydrogen from the Rostock port area and connect further regions via the Flow pipeline system. By providing this important infrastructure, GASCADE is supporting the transformation of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania into a low-carbon energy supply and creating an opportunity for decarbonization for local industry. The Rostock-Wrangelsburg pipeline is part of the German hydrogen core network and is to be completed by 2028.
In preparation for the planning approval procedure, mapping work to investigate the planned pipeline corridor will begin shortly. The preliminary work, which is to be completed by fall 2025, includes surveying, geological site exploration and environmental protection investigations. The main mapping period will be between March and June 2025 and will take place exclusively on freely accessible areas.The work will be carried out mainly during the day or in the morning and evening hours, and only in isolated cases at night to document biodiversity. It goes without saying that fenced-off private properties will not be entered.
Due to the large study area, it is not possible to provide personal information to all property owners and tenants in the area between Rostock and Wrangelsburg. We would like to thank all property owners and tenants in advance for their understanding.
