A natural gas CHP unit with 2 MWel and 2 MW waste heat as well as an absorption chiller (AKM) with 750 kW cooling capacity are installed in the new energy center in the middle of the industrial plant. The CHP covers the electrical base load (approx. 50 %). The site produces 380 million light bulbs in 3 shifts throughout the year. The waste heat is fed into the existing heating network and covers approx. 90 % of the heating requirements. The CHP also supplies an absorption chiller. A new 13/19 °C cooling network will be installed throughout the entire facility. The centrally generated cooling is intended to cover the base load of the 32 compression chillers distributed throughout the plant.
With deep sorrow and great respect, we bid farewell to an extraordinary and kind-hearted person who, with his loyal and confident demeanor, was always a role model for the entire company.
Today we celebrated a special anniversary: Florian Prantl has been with Gammel Engineering for 20 years. Over these two decades, technologies have changed, projects have evolved, and teams have been reorganized. One thing has remained constant: Florian Prantl is a reliable member of the Gammel Engineering team.
In 2026, Gammel Engineering was once again ready to head to the Gillamoos! Together with our partners, we kicked off the “fifth season” in Abensberg on Friday, as is our tradition.
