“A couple of years ago, I was strategising with my management team about our future as a refinery and how does business look like for us in 10, 20, 30 years, given that the amount of fossil fuel is dropping,” Raffinerie Heide chief executive Jürgen Wollschläger tells Recharge.

The company realised that their site was located in the wind capital of Germany, and that about 40% of the local wind energy generated was not allowed onto the grid, resulting in €500m of taxpayer money being paid to wind producers for curtailed power.

Love the way they approached this-- there are lots of these synergies just waiting to be found and utilized!
