The Datteln wind project succeeds in obtaining operating support in German auction

The ČEZ Group Datteln project received operating support of 58.7 EUR/MWh in a German auction of onshore wind power plants. Depending on the correction factor actually used, this will secure it a 78 EUR/MWh tariff for 20 years from connection. This will gain ČEZ further experience in the preparation of wind projects, which it can apply in the Czech Republic. At the same time, it will support a security power supply in Europe that is independent of Russia.

ČEZ, too, plans to save money: decreasing temperature in offices, installing heat pumps and photovoltaics, and insulating

In the upcoming heating season, ČEZ Group plans to lower the heating temperature by 2 to 4 degrees centigrade in more than a hundred of its office buildings across the Czech Republic. It estimates that this will save nearly 15% of its energy consumption. At the same time, the company carries on with its long-term programme to reduce energy intensity – investing an average of CZK 45 million a year in insulation and other energy saving measures. ČEZ plans to save at least another 15% of all energies by 2027. This is to be aided by, among other things, the installation of heat pumps and photovoltaics, or by the planned central control system for more efficient regulation of heating, cooling, and air conditioning.
