New premises for the Energy Storage Business Dispatch Centre
At the beginning of April this year, the MND ES business control room was moved to a completely newly renovated office. The former workshop of the MaR department on the third floor of the old building in Hodonín was used for this purpose. The reconstruction was carried out in cooperation with MND, a. s., where MND financed the construction works and provided all IT support, including the installation of a new technological network or connection of the main dispatching point to the central UPS. MND ES then provided the equipment at a cost of CZK 650,000 excluding VAT.
The intention when designing the new office was to combine efficient working space with a rest area, thus providing comprehensive facilities for continuous work in the business control room. The final visualisation of the office was created by interior designer Jitka Kosinová, whose design imaginatively combined functional solutions with a modern look and subtly incorporated corporate colours. Almost all the joinery work was done by Mr. Marek Řihák from BESTWOOD.
The overall project, from its commission to the final stage of implementation, took one year. Now the dispatchers can enjoy the new premises, which will certainly provide both an efficient and pleasant working environment. A big thank you to Filip Červenka, who was in charge of the new office project, as well as to everyone else who contributed in any way to the renovation.

Installation of two inlet heaters for gas drying technology at PZP Dambořice
MND Gas Storage experienced a difficult period in 2023, due to the termination of a long-term storage contract, the non-performance of contractual obligations by the gas storage provider Gazprom Export and the subsequent uncertainty in the accelerated sale of unexpectedly vacant underground gas storage (UGS) capacity. On top of all the commercial problems, technical ones were added to the mix, and after testing the silica gel drying system, not all design parameters were achieved. The company needed additional capital to invest in feed heaters and to fine-tune the entire drying technology. At this stage, the company's share capital was increased and the subscription for new shares provided the necessary capital for the project.

"Section Commander to Strike Commander: we're starting to cool the probe!" comes over the radio from a fireman wearing a breathing mask. Streams of water from the fire hoses spray the production cross of the probe, from which gas escapes spontaneously to prevent ignition. Dozens of firefighters are on the scene, water tankers are running one after the other, an ambulance is on the scene and a drone is monitoring the situation.
