News in Every Project

The first innovative CHP plants (iKWK) go into operation. Our team developed the iKWK project together with Stadtwerke Bad Reichenhall and implemented the engineering after winning the first round of tenders.

The year that is coming to an end was not only characterized by corona, but also by massively rising energy prices. The dairy industry has been particularly hard hit due to the high demand for heating and cooling.

The secondary school in Neustadt an der Waldnaab is currently being completely renovated according to plans by Brückner & Brückner Architekten. Our team is responsible for modern building technology in this flagship project. A very constructive collaboration with our client, the Neustadt District Office, and the planning partners has been the common thread running through the entire planning and construction phases. Many thanks for this on behalf of our team!

Goodbye 2021! Goodbye 2022! Energetic thoughts from our boss Michael at the turn of the year.

Belt dryer system for 100 tons of wood chips per hour A Basilian power plant operator uses wood chips to generate energy. However, these are initially to be dried using a belt dryer system with an integrated hot water conversion station. The system concept had to be adapted for this. The result was a design that allows maintenance during operation.

The key to the future of combined heat and power generation is iKWK "The German Coal Phase-out Act opens up completely new opportunities for combined heat and power (CHP). This is because the associated amendment to the CHP Act (KWKG) promotes the flexibilization of the technology and thus opens up innovative business models for CHP plants. Until now, these have almost exclusively served as base load generators in continuous operation. However, the sharp increase in volatile electricity generation from solar and wind power means that more and more residual load is required: this is precisely where CHP has a great opportunity to demonstrate its market credentials for the future. However, the new flexibility also increases the complexity of CHP-based energy concepts. Sound project development and planning are essential to ensure that the respective business case remains economically viable.

How can the heat supply for a company and a city center be combined in a smart way? In Cham, we have achieved this: our steam cogeneration plant uses wood chips from the region to generate superheated steam for the Goldsteig cheese dairy - the remaining steam is liquefied in a heating condenser and the heated water is fed into the district heating network of Stadtwerke Cham.

Curtain up for Evi Wittmann, who has been supporting us in project assistance for a year now.

The aim of the Gammel Engineering team is to develop the best sustainable energy solutions for our customers in the various areas of supply and systems engineering. It is a matter of course for us to continuously qualify our committed employees through training and to keep them up to date.

A Brazilian power plant operator uses wood chips for its energy supply. However, the wood chips first had to be dried using a belt dryer system with an integrated hot water conversion station. The basis for this was a model from the "BT 1/8400-58" series from Stela Laxhuber GmbH. However, this had to be adapted from the ground up with regard to an optimized overall system concept. A suitable concept was developed together with Gammel Engineering and Pewo Energietechnik.
