In a significant move towards a greener future, the cities of Bottrot, Gelsenkirchen, and Gladbeck are working together with Con-Energy Consult to develop a Municipal Heat Plan. This plan is part of the Federal Government's mandate for major cities to submit a Municipal Heat Plan by mid-2026.

The needs of the citizens in these cities will always be prioritized, as emphasized by Con-Energy Consult. They will involve both citizens and all relevant actors in the process to ensure transparency and inclusivity.

Dr. Klaus Rammert-Bentlage, the project leader of the city of Bottrot, expects synergy effects from the close cooperation between several organizational units of the three city administrations. The shared cross-city supply networks make a joint approach sensible, as it can help save costs and expedite the process.

Con-Energy Consult has been tasked with the strategic planning for the Municipal Heat Plan. Their role includes describing the current situation in the municipalities of Bottrot, Gelsenkirchen, and Gladbeck, as well as developing the implementation strategy and specific measures for the plan.

The Municipal Heat Plan will determine how different city areas will be supplied with heat and how renewable energies and unavoidable waste heat can be used effectively. The goal is to develop a future-proof energy system and provide citizens with guidance for their individual energy planning.

A significant milestone has been reached with the conclusion of the bidding process for the heat plan. Con-Energy Consult has been selected to lead this project.

Dr. Klaus Rammert-Bentlage aims to keep costs low for taxpayers by bundling competencies in the project. He also emphasizes the importance of considering citizens' interests in the further process. All parties involved in the project share this view.

Con-Energy Consult will keep the public informed about all milestones of the project. The potential of the heat plan for the cities of Bottrot, Gelsenkirchen, and Gladbeck will be determined in the coming months. The company commissioned to develop the municipal heat plan for these cities is less relevant in widely available public sources; please consult local municipal records or official announcements for the specific company's name.

The goal of the collaboration between the cities and Con-Energy Consult is to have developed plans for all three municipalities by the beginning of 2026. This collaborative effort is a step towards a sustainable and energy-efficient future for these German cities.
