The Peute is an industrial area in Hamburg that belongs to the Veddel district . The inland island of Peute is located between the Elbe bridges , across from Rothenburgsort and directly on the North Elbe. 40 percent of the site is the factory site of Aurubis AG (formerly Norddeutsche Affinerie AG), one of the largest employers in Hamburg. The Peute is managed by the Hamburg Port Authority (HPA) , as it is counted as part of the port area.
history
When the Elbe broke through in 1876–1879, which brought about the current course of the Norderelbe , Kaltehofe was separated from the Peute.
After 1920 , the Großeinkaufs-Gesellschaft Deutscher Consumvereine (GEG) built several large production facilities on the Peute , including a printing plant, coffee roasting plant, a chemical factory for the production of detergents and a liquor bottling facility. With the chemical factory, the central warehouse and today's Elbe-Gewerbe-Zentrum, three large and numerous outbuildings have been preserved. They are under monument protection or are entered in the list of recognized monuments of the city of Hamburg.
Power plant planning
The City of Hamburg (SRH) and the North German Affinerie AG (NA) signed on 27 March 2006 a foundation agreement for the power plant Peute project management company (KPP). The SRH and NA should each have a half share in the company. The new power plant with 100 MW electrical output should start producing electricity from autumn 2009. It was planned to burn 750,000 tons of substitute fuel from waste and generate 800,000 megawatt hours of electricity per year . The investment in the power plant was set at EUR 320 million. The power plant plans were a reaction to the repeatedly criticized pricing policy of the electricity supplier Vattenfall .
These plans were discarded in May 2007 after Aurubis AG had signed a 30-year electricity supply contract with Vattenfall. This guaranteed Aurubis a long-term low electricity price, which made the construction of the power plant superfluous.
