- Contracting solution: REWAG built and operates the center - calculable in the long term and low-maintenance for investors and operators
💡 Why the Dörnberg energy center is a lighthouse project:
- Gammel designed the energy centerpiece for an integrated quarter, brewery and clinic - pioneering in terms of energy policy and urban development.
- The combination of CHP, gas modules, buffer storage and contracting guarantees security of supply at a fair price for users.
- The strategic energy concept was developed in close consultation with REWAG, the brewery and investors - and implemented as a system solution.
- In addition, a future strategy for retrofitting photovoltaics and electromobility was created
