News in Every Project

At our monthly team meeting last Friday, we had the pleasure of congratulating Oliver Möstl on successfully completing his extensive, multi-year training course. We are proud to have a "certified expert for building services fire protection (EIPOS)" and thus even more "certified competence" in our team.

Last weekend, almost all of our employees set off on our annual company outing. This year we went to the beautiful Berchtesgadener Land.

On Thursday, 24.05.2018, our annual asparagus dinner took place with the whole team. This year, we were cooked for by the Röll family in Sandharlanden.

No, a new energy market regulation that really makes it possible to supply 100% of Germany's electricity from renewable energies does not yet exist. Fabio Longo, Vice President of the international, non-partisan Eurosolar Association, therefore called for "decisions to be made by politicians" at this year's municipal utilities conference in Nuremberg. According to Longo, it is not to be expected that "the market" will take care of everything.

On 05.05.2018, we went on a mountain bike tour through the Altmühltal valley. The tour started at Lake Agatha in Riedenburg.

We have already reported several times here that the Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) has the task of putting renewable energy plants out to tender and awarding contracts. The Bonn-based authority also completed the first round of tenders for combined heat and power (CHP) plants at the end of 2017.

Artificial competition instead of a joint approach to future energies

Karina Rödl had her first day at work in our company 10 years ago. There is no better way to start a working day. As part of a small celebration, we looked back on the past 10 years and toasted to them.

Are missing transmission lines being used as an alibi for extending the nuclear phase-out? Tarek Al-Wazir did it recently: he brought up the possibility of continuing to operate German nuclear power plants beyond the "final" phase-out date of 2022. Even if the Hessian Green Minister for Economic Affairs wants to officially blame "the CSU in Bavaria" for this possible return to operation, this makes it fundamentally clear that it is not only local politicians across party lines who are at least considering such a scenario.

Gudrun and Michael Gammel have handed over an electric scooter to the therapy area of the Cabrini School in Offenstetten. The children and young people, as well as the therapists, have welcomed the new training device with great enthusiasm.

If you listen to politicians and energy industry experts at the moment, you might think: In future, heat will only be generated using electricity-powered heat pumps. But will there even be enough electricity for this, especially electricity from renewable sources? Or are there alternatives, and if so, what are they?

On Saturday, 10.03.2018, we set off for Austria in the early hours of the morning. Our destination: the Fieberbrunn - Leogang - Saalbach - Hinterglemm ski resort.
