Energy Transition with Vision in Bielefeld: An evening for everyone who wants to understand the future of heat supply

On July 6, 2026, the Citizens' Watch at Siegfriedplatz invites you to a free information evening about the energy transition in Bielefeld and East Westphalia-Lippe. The focus is on concrete solutions for a climate-neutral and affordable heat supply - with professional exchange, clear insights and a look at the regional implementation.

What this evening is about

The event is part of the Energy Day of the Climate Week Bielefeld and brings together two perspectives that are particularly important for municipal heat planning: WestfalenLandWärme and the Bielefeld municipal utilities. Anyone interested in district heating, heat pumps, supply security, and climate-friendly energy will get a practical overview here.

Regional expertise meets concrete answers

The speakers are Reinhard Laing, Managing Director of WestfalenLandWärme, and Holger Mengedodt, Department Head of Heat at the Bielefeld municipal utilities. Both represent an approach that does not treat heat supply abstractly, but as a central question for residential buildings, companies, and urban development in Bielefeld and OWL.

The Climate Week Bielefeld has been relying on understandable formats for years around sustainability, energy, and climate protection. This is precisely the strength of this evening: Expertise is conveyed in a way that resonates in everyday life - for homeowners, tenants, engaged citizens, and everyone who wants to consider the energy transition.

Atmosphere, exchange, and a clear outlook

The Citizens' Watch provides the right setting: centrally located at Siegfriedplatz, known as a sociocultural center in the western part of Bielefeld and regularly hosting political and cultural events. This creates an open event experience with closeness to the topic and room for questions from the audience.

Especially on a future topic like heat supply, not only information counts, but also context. How will heating in Bielefeld become climate-neutral, affordable, and planable in the long term? What role do heat networks, local energy providers, and municipal strategies play? This evening will address exactly these intersections between technology, planning, and everyday life.

Conclusion: An evening for everyone who wants to understand the energy transition locally

The energy transition is no longer an abstract future topic, but part of concrete urban development. Those who want to be informed early will receive a compact, factually sound, and free insight into the next steps for Bielefeld and OWL at the Citizens' Watch. An event that provides information, gives orientation, and encourages active participation - live on site.
