RWE truly brings this statement to life in Niederaussem. Through technical innovation, we wish to make coal viable as an energy source for the future. After all, coal will continue to play a central role in power generation in the decades to come, as confirmed by extensive analyses undertaken by reputable institutes such as PROGNOS AG from Basel and the Institute of Energy Economics at the University of Cologne. For this reason, we bundle our pioneering activities at the Niederaussem power plant site and have invested over 100 million euros in research and development in recent years. Our projects go straight from the site to the workbench, so to speak.
