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.
Our employees voted together and decided to support the Hölzgen family with a donation from the Gammel Family Social Fund.
The exchange on digitalization, AI and new technologies is becoming increasingly important for companies. We are therefore all the more pleased that our authorized signatory Thomas Winkler will also be supporting these topics in the digitalization committee of the Regensburg Chamber of Industry and Commerce in future.
On 12.05.2026, Gammel Engineering was once again a guest at the Waltl-Hof for the annual asparagus dinner. In a relaxed atmosphere, with excellent food and good conversation, the focus was on one thing above all: spending time together as a team.
