Energy Supply (electricity, gas, district heating)
EnBW Fuel Switch, Heilbronn and Altbach/Deizisau
Drees & Sommer flips the switch to the future with expert construction site management
Together with Drees & Sommer, EnBW is taking a significant step towards a more sustainable and future-proof energy supply. As part of Germany’s coal phase-out and the company’s decarbonisation strategy, EnBW plans to decommission its coal-fired power stations in Heilbronn and Altbach/Deizisau.
Each site will be replaced by a natural gas-fired, hydrogen-ready combined cycle power plant, which is designed to generate electricity and heat through combined heat and power (CHP).
Full-scope construction site management
Drees & Sommer will be responsible for most construction site management tasks, including construction management, specialised construction supervision across trades, and commissioning coordination. In addition, Drees & Sommer experts will support the technical aspects of commercial and contractual execution, as well as interface and site coordination and technical quality assurance during assembly. They also play a key role in scheduling and construction monitoring.
