Pulheim is a city in the Rhein-Erft-Kreis, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

Since the 1920s, a large substation of the RWE has been sited at Pulheim. At this substation there is the termination of the north south powerline and a large control center for the powergrid of the RWE.

In the communal reform of 1975 several previously independent municipalities were added to the municipality Pulheim, which received city rights in 1981.
