This week, the biomass cogeneration plant of Naturenergie Hersbruck GmbH & Co KG in Hersbruck was well attended:
Philipp zu Guttenberg, President of the Working Group of German Forest Owners' Associations, is enthusiastic about the power plant: "Great what you are doing here". He sees wood as an important raw material for renewable energies in the form of biomass and considers this project to be groundbreaking. Das Nürnberger Land reports (please click).
Margarete Bause also visited the biomass cogeneration plant on her election tour through the Nuremberg region. Bause and other local Green politicians were impressed by the pioneering plant, which is planned and managed by Gammel Engineering. Find out more on the Greens' website (please click).
The state chairman of the Free Voters Hubert Aiwanger and the candidates of the Free Voters visited the combined heat and power plant, as this innovative project contributes to covering Bavaria's energy supply completely with renewable energies by 2030 - this is the goal of the Free Voters in Bad Rodach.

Dieter Lichtenberger from Gammel Engineering was on site to provide expert answers to all technical questions.
Forest-fresh wood chips are used for combustion in the heating plant. At the heart of the plant is a temperature-controlled, negative pressure counter-flow gasifier. The hot gases produced in the combustion chamber generate hot air via a heat exchanger, which is fed to a gas turbine and further heated by compression.
This generates electrical energy and heat, which is used to supply the Frankenalbtherme, for example.
Michael and Gudrun Gammel's brother-in-law, Martin Kundler from Neustadt an der Donau, has been a passionate hobby gardener for many years. His large garden with numerous trees and lots of vegetables is a real treasure trove of nature.
After a long period of planning, lots of ideas and countless hours, the time has finally come: our new homepage is live! We are looking forward to your feedback!
Rising energy and raw material prices can be counteracted by using sustainable energy technologies and thus reducing CO2 emissions. This not only significantly reduces cost explosions, but also reduces your own ecological footprint. Pioneers in the dairy industry are also focusing on this.
