UGS Customer seminar 13.11.2025

Thank you very much for the valuable exchange!

On 13 November 2025, UGS GmbH in Mittenwalde had the pleasure of welcoming numerous representatives from politics, the gas storage industry, the brine industry, the hydrogen sector, research, mining authorities, geothermal energy, and the media. Together, we discussed a key topic of current energy policy:
“Overpriced gas molecules stored underground – a new paradox of the Storage Act or a new economics of security of supply?”
The focus was on the effects of regulatory requirements, price formation for storage fillings, and the role of underground energy storage in a changing energy market.

A heartfelt thank-you goes to our outstanding speakers for their expertise and inspiring contributions:
- Sabine Augustin, RWE Gas Storage West GmbH
“Energy transition? Absolutely! – How H₂ storage ensures energy security”
- Dr. Heiko Lohmann, Author & Journalist
“State intervention: A disaster for the storage market?”
- Reinhard Rümler Rümmler, PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH
- Dr. Stephan Dewald, DEWALD & Projects
“Is the current regulatory regime suitable for storage assets in Germany?”

“Underground Sun Storage – Insights from 10 years of hydrogen in pore reservoirs”
A big thank-you also goes to all guests, customers and partners who contributed to the success of the event through their participation and trust.
We are already looking forward to further exchange and to shaping tomorrow’s energy world together!
