About
We are 50Hertz, one of the four transmission system operators (TSOs) in Germany. Together with Belgian grid operator Elia (Brussels), we form the internationally active Elia Group. More than 2,500 people work at 50Hertz to ensure that electricity flows reliably, with minimal losses and optimal control over long distances. As a TSO, we play a central role in implementing the energy transition in social, technical and economic terms. Our goal: to safely and affordably integrate 100 percent renewable energy into the grid and system by 2032.
