News in Every Project

DIBAG is building a new logistics and production hall with 20,000 m² of floor space in Allershausen at Eggenberger Feld. The concrete pillars are rising rapidly and construction is progressing.

Last week, we handed over donations for the Cabrini House in Offenstetten - a facility run by the Catholic Youth Welfare Service in Regensburg. We have enjoyed a friendship with the people at Cabrini Haus for many years, which we are also supporting with our 2022 Christmas campaign (as we reported).

After 2 hard years of "carnival withdrawal", Abensberg is finally getting back into the carnival spirit. Naturally, things are a little more exuberant than usual at Gammel Engineering during these hours. And so we sweeten our employees' Carnival Thursday with carnival doughnuts!

The handover of the donation to the Association for the Promotion of Rare Diseases, headed by Prof. Dr. Mark Berneburg from Regensburg University Hospital, was a cause for celebration for the Gammel Engineering team. The MZ also reported on our innovative fundraising campaign - the direct involvement of our many business partners in the distribution of the Christmas budget was very important.

And once again we were able to bring joy to people with a special ordeal. Prof. Berneburg from the Association for the Promotion of Rare Diseases at Regensburg University Hospital visited us in Abensberg today. In a moving conversation, we talked about the orphans of medicine. We speak of rare diseases when there are no more than 5 affected persons/10,000 inhabitants. Over 4 million people in Germany suffer from a rare disease. On average, their ordeal lasts 7 years before the disease itself is even recognized. But even with a diagnosis, there is little help because research by the pharmaceutical industry is not profitable and is not publicly supported. Medical care is extremely difficult, especially in times like these. Networking and awareness, even within the medical profession, is unfortunately still very rudimentary.

Our trainee Christina Triltsch got the team off to a perfect start in the new year 2023. On 23.01.2023, she passed her oral exam with flying colors after her written exam!

Looking back one year after the ceremonial blessing of the iKWK plant: The Gammel Engineering team worked closely with the Bad Reichenhall public utility company to develop the concept for the innovative energy center for the pioneering district heating project and planned the entire technology. This flagship project was made possible thanks to iKWK federal funding. The result is a heating network with a route length of approx. 7.5 km. Natural gas CHP units, groundwater heat pumps and a power-to-heat system, combined with a large heat storage tank and a peak load boiler, cover the heat demand.

There was great joy on both sides when Managing Director Max Oblinger and authorized signatory Thomas Zweier were able to present Gammel Engineering GmbH with the donation from our Christmas campaign. We are innovative and have come up with something creative for Christmas: More than half of our customers and business partners took part in our Christmas voting and voted enthusiastically!

District heating expansion is a key component of the energy transition. The demand for "clean", CO2-free heat from natural wood chips is also unbroken in Hersbruck. Together with our energy partner HEWA, Naturenergie Hersbruck has been expanding for years. A tripling of the buffer volume to compensate for peak loads in the grid by 50 cubic meters is currently being completed and commissioned. Many thanks to the companies involved and above all to our operator team at ForstServiceGmbh for the perfect handling on site.

For 25 years, our authorized signatory Dieter Lichtenberger has not only enriched our company with his expertise and acquisition skills. His open personality also ensures a good, positive atmosphere throughout the team. Dieter has significantly shaped and expanded the project development division over many years and then managed order procurement as a key account over the past 10 years. Thanks to his in-depth knowledge of the market and industry, we have never had any capacity utilization problems. Whenever there's something to celebrate or even at the legendary "Friday nightcap", Dieter is always a good mood maker and a popular conversation partner. 25 years have welded us together - a wonderful friendship over many years that we hope will never end. Dear Dieter, we look forward to many more years with you!

Nothing nobler than helping! Not being able to help is the hardest thing. Not wanting to help is the most pathetic. With these words, the management of Gammel Engineering GmbH called on its business partners to vote for the recipient of this year's Christmas donation. For many years, it has been a matter close to the heart of our company family to be able to help children and people with disabilities with gifts and personal commitment.

The Naturenergie Hersbruck biomass cogeneration plant has been reliably supplied with forest chips from the region by our main shareholders for almost 20 years. These are the members of Forstservicegesellschaft Nürnberger Land mbH, a 100% FBG subsidiary. In the past, the fuel deliveries were weighed using a single-axle scale. We were "recommended" a large truck scale by the responsible calibration office. This was installed in November 2022 and then calibrated and put into operation. We look forward to the best weighing results! Many thanks to our operating team for their commitment to this construction project!
