The company plans, operates, and expands the extra‑high‑voltage electricity grid (380/220 kV) across multiple federal states, connecting large power plants, industrial sites, and regional distribution networks. Its grid forms a backbone of the country’s power system, linking major load centers and supporting cross‑border electricity flows within the European market.
Amprion’s core tasks include real‑time system operation, grid planning and reinforcement, and the provision of ancillary services such as frequency control and voltage management to maintain stability. The company facilitates the integration of renewable energy and the electrification of industry by developing new transmission capacity and coordinating balancing energy. For energy‑intensive sectors, including chemicals, Amprion’s reliable transmission services and grid expansion programs are critical to secure power supply and support Germany’s energy transition.
