On his tour of Bavarian flagship companies, Martin Zeil, Bavarian Minister of State for Economic Affairs, Infrastructure, Transport and Technology and Deputy Minister President, also stopped off at Gammel Engineering GmbH.
The FDP Minister of State, who is particularly interested in SMEs, showed great interest in the 50-man company Gammel Engineering and asked many interesting questions about the company's own innovation, the Kombi Power System.
The Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) and the Combined Heat and Power Act (KWKG) were also the subject of lively discussion. For the company, which has implemented more than 250 biomass projects, the current discussion about the legal framework is both a blessing and a curse: many investors and customers are currently unsettled as there are no clear regulations for the future. This is causing them to shy away from relevant modernization investments. The Minister of State promised that the EEG would be reformed after the election and adapted to current conditions.
We were able to celebrate a special anniversary today: February 15 marked the 20th anniversary of Anita Ebenslander joining Gammel Engineering. Two decades that stand for commitment, precision and exceptional reliability.
Having already reported on the results of our Christmas donation campaign, we are now delighted that all three donations have now been handed over in person. It was particularly important to us not only to hand over the donations symbolically, but also to visit the facilities on site and gain an insight into their valuable work.
