Companies.and.Market.Players.
EnBW Gas GmbH combines all EnBW acitivities in gas distribu-
tion, supplying clients both in the stuttgart metropolitan area
as well as in the Black Forest and Hohenlohe regions. Many
other regions of Baden-Württemberg are furthermore indirectly
supplied by EnBW through its affiliated companies.
via its subcompany Erdgas südwest, EnBW since 2008 has been
operating a biogas feed-in plant close to Laupheim. Currently,
EnBW is constructing a second plant for the feed-in of biogas
into the natural gas grid in Blaufelden. a biogas plant in operation
since 2005 is being repowered for grid feed-in in cooperation
with the agricultural operator.
a second element of EnBW’s biogas strategy is the utilization
of so far unused biomass for energy generation. a special focus
here lies on residues based on food production. In context with
a project supported by the Federal Ministry for Education and
research, EnBW is part of a consortium for the upgrade of
biogas based on food residues. The gas thus generated will be
used as bio fuel in vehicles. The start of operation of this pilot
plant is expected in april 2011.
