Mühlenbeck will be a key location for the energy transition in MV!
In Dümmer, Ludwigslust-Parchim, 70 citizens found out about the planned network connection point for the energy transition.
Mühlenbeck will be a key location for the energy transition in MV!
On November 4, 2025, around 70 interested citizens in Dümmer found out about the planned network connection point in Mühlenbeck, which is intended to play a central role in the energy transition in the municipality of Schossin in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district. The NordOstLink and SüdostLink+ power lines will meet at this new junction, which are being implemented by the transmission system operator 50Hertz and are used to transport electricity over long distances. This is necessary because the existing network is increasingly reaching its limits due to the increasing number of small, decentralized power generation systems, such as wind and solar systems, as ndr.de reports.
This development is not only important for energy supply; it also has economic effects for the community itself. After the network connection point goes into operation, Schossin will benefit from trade tax revenue. In addition, ecological compensation measures are planned for the intervention in nature through the construction. In total, the new hub will be built on an area of around 65 hectares, where substations and converters will be required to efficiently transport the distributed energy.
Growing challenges and initiatives
In addition to the plans of 50Hertz, the citizens of Dümmer were also able to find out about the Wemag Netz GmbH project. The first approval for some of the upcoming facilities has already been applied for, and those responsible are expecting approval next year, meaning construction work could start soon. But not everyone agrees with this plan: There is a citizens' initiative that is mobilizing against the project.
The energy transition is a major issue that extends far beyond national borders. International trends also show that the switch to renewable energy is urgently needed. The network expansion in Germany is intended not only to overcome local challenges, but also to ensure that German energy is converted to an efficient system. There is also technical support for these challenges: Fraunhofer IEE has developed a web application for simulating superstructures with regard to the optimal use of renewable energies (fraunhofer.de). This application can help to better plan and evaluate the combinations of wind and photovoltaic systems.
In this way, key data such as expected energy yields and grid supplies are determined. This is where modern data analytics comes into play. Historical weather data enables more precise planning and use of generation opportunities through wind and solar energy. The goal is not only to promote green energy production, but also to find environmentally friendly and efficient solutions for the respective locations.
In summary, it can be said that the developments in Mühlenbeck have far-reaching consequences. The new grid connection point is not only a sign of the necessary grid expansion, but also an important step for the energy future of the region and beyond. The community of Schossin has the opportunity to strengthen its local economy and at the same time contribute to the national energy transition.
