News in Every Project

As part of our 30th company anniversary, we raffled off a total of 8 tickets for the second matchday of the Audi Cup 2017 at the Allianz Arena.

Exactly 30 years ago, Michael Gammel registered his engineering office for supply and plant technology in Abensberg. Reason enough to celebrate with all Gammel Engineering employees and their partners on July 28.

The AGFW's seven election touchstones are very easy to remember. "Energy transition in the heating market", "Efficiency First: Expansion and modernization of CHP", "Seizing the opportunities of district heating", "Secure and cost-effective power supply with CHP", "Accelerating the heating transition", "More renewable energies and waste heat in district heating systems" and "Integrated urban development only with district heating".

Last Saturday, 15.07.2017, the TSV Abensberg track and field athletes once again took part in the charity tower run. Of course, numerous athletes from our "Gammel Engineering - mit Energie voraus" team took part in the event, which was perfectly organized by Resi März. Together we completed 134 laps and had a lot of fun with the runners and the enthusiastic spectators. Many thanks to the organizers and the residents of Aunkofen for cheering us on and providing us with culinary delights. It was great that we were able to be there and support the TSV athletes and the Cabrini Center. We'll be back next year!

The "Gammel Energy Team" took part in the legendary 24-hour race in Kelheim for the first time this year. Our enthusiastic cyclist Christian Meier put together a mixed team with our former employee Markus Lautenschlager and friends. From 2 p.m. on Saturday to 2 p.m. on Sunday, they enthusiastically completed their laps around Kelheim - each lap 17 km. Many colleagues from the "Gammel family" enjoyed stopping by for a snack and to cheer them on in the paddock on Hienheimer Straße. We are delighted with the excellent 10th place in the mixed classification - we have great respect for this achievement and hope that a GAMMEL ENERGY TEAM will cycle again next year.

Once upon a time, there was a country that had an electricity grid. It belonged to the "Big Five", i.e. to the then Bayernwerk, VIAG, RWE, EnBW and Vattenfall groups. All five actually belonged to those who had once paid for their lines with their "fees": In other words, the electricity customers. Even if only somehow via their villages, towns, districts or federal states.

How economical is my heating or cooling network, my heat or cold storage system? For someone who plans grids and storage systems, this positive question is logical: you want to set up grids that supply heat reliably and for as long as possible. And the operator should generate an adequate return.

The nuclear fuel tax for nuclear power plant operators is null and void. When the Federal Constitutional Court (BVG) branded the associated "Nuclear Fuel Tax Act" (KernbrStG) as unconstitutional on June 7, the German government was astonished. However, this BVG ruling is in fact just another clear sign: The whole "energy turnaround" in Germany does not deserve this name. It is merely a gigantic patchwork.

The energy transition and digitalization open up great opportunities for companies in all sectors, but also demand further development within companies. As an independent engineering service provider, Gammel Engineering has been advising companies and institutions on all aspects of sustainable energy supply for 30 years.

At Intersolar Europe, the protagonists of the solar industry are shining brightly. After several years of downward trends, things are clearly on the up again.

From the end of the 1990s, Germany was at the forefront of the EU in "privatizing" its electricity transmission grids. In other words, the federal and state governments sold the extra-high-voltage lines, which had previously been financed by citizens through electricity prices, to "private investors", including the Dutch royal family, Belgian municipalities and Ärzteversorgung Nordrhein-Westfalen.

Our newly designed outdoor seating area in the garden was completed just in time for the start of summer.
