In September, the experts from the central division Systembau Nord were able to hand over a property located in the triangle formed by Münster, Dortmund and Bielefeld to the client on schedule. The building, which was constructed in the Bögl hall system, is impressive not only because of its dimensions but also, and in particular, in terms of occupational safety.

The Max Bögl location in Cologne moved from Stolberger Straße to Frankfurter Straße at the beginning of the year - about twelve kilometres from the city centre. The Eil district there is directly connected to the A3, A4 and A59 motorways and to Cologne/Bonn Airport. The newly acquired office space - in teamwork with the precast plant and the technical office staff in Hamminkeln - will strengthen the company's presence in North Rhine-Westphalia and increase its proximity to its customers.

The starting signal for the test drives in Chengdu, China, has been given: In September, the future-oriented local public transport system TSB started operation on the first section of a 3.5 km long demonstration line. Max Bögl and the Transport System Bögl have thus reached the next milestone on the way to final commissioning. In the future the vehicle will demonstrate the many advantages of the transport system in local transport in China as well.

Together with the wind turbine manufacturer VENSYS, Max Bögl Wind AG is building a wind farm in Drohndorf (Saxony-Anhalt) in which second-generation hybrid towers are being used for the first time. We spoke with site manager Wilhelm Pauksch about the project and the new tower system 2.0.

Firmengruppe Max Bögl startet mit der Baumaßnahme zum Neubau der Ruhr- und Hafenkanalbrücke sowie der Errichtung des Kaiserhafendamms in Duisburg.

Verbundträger Bögl entsprechen wie kaum andere Systeme den Anforderungen, die an den modernen Brückenbau gestellt werden. Der material- und beanspruchungsgerechte Einsatz der Werkstoffe Stahl und Beton, verbunden mit einem hohen Vorfertigungsgrad, ermöglicht es, Brückenüberbauten schnell und wirtschaftlich zu realisieren.

Increased profitability of wind power projects. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, one of the world’s leading wind turbine manufacturers, and the German hybrid tower producer, Max Bögl Wind AG, have agreed a forward-looking cooperation model. Under the framework partnership agreement, project developers planning a Siemens Gamesa wind turbine will now be able to purchase hybrid towers as a project component directly from Max Bögl, reducing the number of interfaces and further optimising costs. One of the first projects to use the new contractual structure is the Coesfeld Letter Bruch GmbH wind farm, which is being developed by the SL NaturEnergie group.

Wirtschaftlichkeit von Windkraftprojekten wird gesteigert. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, einer der weltweit führenden Produzenten von Windkraftanlagen, und der deutsche Hybridturmhersteller, Max Bögl Wind AG, haben sich auf ein zukunftsfähiges Kooperationsmodell geeinigt. Der Partnerschaftsrahmenvertrag sieht vor, dass Projektentwickler, die eine Siemens Gamesa Windkraftanlage planen, Hybridtürme zukünftig als Teilleistung direkt über Max Bögl einkaufen können, um so die Schnittstellen zu reduzieren und noch wirtschaftlicher planen zu können. Ein erstes Projekt, bei dem das neue Vertragskonstrukt zum Tragen kommt, ist der Windpark Coesfeld Letter Bruch GmbH, der von der SL NaturEnergie Unternehmensgruppe entwickelt wird.

In cooperation with Max Bögl Wind AG, Vestas is expanding its industry-leading tower portfolio of different tower technologies and heights to include concrete hybrid towers. Towers with hub heights of 166 and 169 meters are certified for the V162-5.6 MW and V150-5.6 MW turbine models of the EnVentus platform for Germany and Austria. Type approvals and relevant documentation packages are immediately available, so that Vestas customers can plan their EnVentus wind projects with these new towers.
