Dortmunder Stadtwerke AG is a municipal services and public transport company in Dortmund,[1] wholly owned by the city of Dortmund.[2] It is operating under the brand DSW21 since 2005.[3] The number in the acronym refers to the 21st century.
The development of the company began on June 19, 1857, when the Dortmunder Actien-Gesellschaft für Gasbeleuchtung was founded.[4][5]
Corporate structure
[edit]DSW21 holds stakes in a large number of subsidiaries with the business areas of public transportation, energy, telecommunications, information technology (IT), housing and urban development.[6][1] Together with the City of Gelsenkirchen and Stadtwerke Bochum GmbH, DSW21 is thus, for example, the main shareholder of Gelsenwasser AG.
DSW21 is active in the following areas or divisions:
The housing division promotes urban development in Dortmund. The Stadtkrone Ost development project in Schüren, the Hohenbuschei site, the Lake Phoenix recreational area,[7] and the Westfalentor project deserve special mention.[6][8] However, the housing division also includes DOGEWO21, a municipal housing association with over 16,000 apartments in Dortmund.[9]
The mobility and logistics division includes the transport division of DSW21 with over 1900 employees. However, it also includes the Port of Dortmund and the Dortmund suspension railway H-Bahn.[10] The Dortmund Airport is co-owned by the city of Dortmund (26%) and Dortmunder Stadtwerke AG (74%).[2] From 1999 to 2004 Dortmund-Märkische Eisenbahn (DME), a subsidiary of Dortmunder Stadtwerke (74%) and Märkische Verkehrsgesellschaft (26%), operated the Dortmund-Hagen-Lüdenscheid regional rail service.
The energy sector includes the energy supplier DEW21 (Dortmunder Energie- und Wasserversorgung) with over 1100 employees.[11]
The data networks business unit is mainly operated through the telecommunications company DOKOM21.[12]

[edit]The mobility division of DSW21 is a partner company in the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr (VRR), responsible for public transport in the city of Dortmund and the surrounding area. The business area overlaps with neighboring transport companies.
Dortmunder Stadtwerke AG (DSW21) operates a total of eight light rail lines (see also: Dortmund Stadtbahn) and 76 bus lines.[13] In 2018, it transported a total of around 130.3 million passengers on its 1107.6-kilometer network, covering approximately 20,780,000 kilometers. It used 47 streetcar cars, 74 light rail cars and 172 buses for transportation.[14] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of passengers dropped by 20% in the first quarter of 2021.[15]
The company is a member of the Eastern Ruhr Area Cooperation (Kooperation östliches Ruhrgebiet).[16]
