Energieberg Georgswerder

Completion requirements

Overview

The preceding modules established the conceptual and regulatory framework for contaminated sites management in Germany. This module examines how these principles apply in practice through selected case studies in Hamburg, representing different contamination types, institutional contexts, and remediation approaches. 

In this lesson, we examine the transformation of Energieberg Georgswerder from Germany's most notorious contaminated site to a renewable energy landmark. This case study exemplifies how comprehensive remediation coupled with innovative site reuse can reshape community perceptions of contaminated land.
