With 55 employees - the "Gammel family" - we have realized hundreds of customer-specific energy systems with a wide variety of technologies and energy sources exclusively in combined heat and power (cooling) and developed the modular Kombi Power System® with immense effort and risk.
Since last year's 180-degree turnaround in the EEG, comparable efforts in the KWKG and the unspeakable discussion about power lines, I seriously fear the failure of the energy transition. When it comes to the future of energy in Germany, we are currently experiencing the struggle between the fragmented sector of decentralized and renewable energy systems and the overpowering lobbyists of backward-looking big industry. They are investing a lot of money and resources in influencing political decision-makers, marketing and "throwing smoke and mirrors" and have proclaimed 2015 to be the "year of decision". The complexity of the energy issue facilitates this approach, and politicians seem happy to have the "right path" that this shows them.
I would like my contributions and those of the open-minded community on the subject of future energy to be a committed information and discussion platform that can also develop into a mouthpiece for the energy transition - that is the future of energy! - can develop. In the coming weeks, I would like to spark this exchange via our blog and social media with short, concise contributions on as objective a basis as possible and fulfill my responsibility as a graduate engineer in the energy sector. We will collaborate with proven energy specialists in our communications and publish their contributions. I am very much looking forward to a lively, fair and objective exchange of different points of view.
