Numerous precautionary measures

  • At the town of Beckum, emergency power and heat generators as well as its own refuelling station create the conditions for the town council to remain capable of acting in the event of a blackout. All affected departments are making the best possible preparations for conceivable scenarios.
  • The SAE energy crisis (SAE = staff for extraordinary events) meets in the event of an emergency in order to protect the population in the best possible way. To this end, coordination takes place with important authorities in the city area as required.
  • Each and every individual should also consider how to prepare themselves and their loved ones for such an emergency.
