The KVVH - Karlsruher Versorgungs-, Verkehrs- und Hafen GmbH and KVVH Group is a corporate holding of the cross-association , which is 100 percent owned by the city ​​of Karlsruhe . The city bundles its inner-city transport and supply companies as well as the port in this holding company. The headquarters of the group is Karlsruhe.

Public utilities

The most important source of money for the KVVH is the Stadtwerke Karlsruhe , in which the KVVH has an 80% stake with effect from January 1, 2010, while 20% belongs to EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg .

The history of the Stadtwerke began as an in-house operation with the purchase of the private gasworks in 1869, the construction of the waterworks in the Rüppurrer Wald in 1868, the start of the canalization in 1883 and the construction of an electricity company in 1901 at the Rhine harbor.

The spin-off into a municipal company, Stadtwerke Karlsruhe GmbH, took place on July 1, 1997.

transport services

The largest cost factor of the cross-association is the transport company Karlsruhe (VBK) , which is 100% owned by KVVH and operates the Karlsruhe tram . The Albtal-Verkehrs-Gesellschaft (AVG), which is very closely linked to the VBK and operates the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn , is 100% owned by the city.

After private forerunners for horse-drawn trams and steam trams and the electrification of the railways by the AEG , the city took over the trams in March 1903 and the Karlsruhe local railway in 1915 and ran them as its own.

The spin-off into a municipal company, Verkehrsbetriebe Karlsruhe GmbH, took place on July 1, 1997.

CHEESY

Another "transport company" is 100% owned by the Karlsruhe Rail Infrastructure Company (KASIG) .

It was founded in May 2003 for the planning, construction and financial management of the combined solution . The combined solution consists of the two project parts of the urban railway tunnel under Kaiserstraße including the southern branch into Ettlinger Straße, under construction since the beginning of 2010, and the above-ground tram route including the car tunnel in Kriegsstraße , construction started in 2014.

The managing director is Frank Nenninger, the authorized signatories are Dr. Thilo Grabo (commercial) and Matthias Schmidt (technical).

Baths

In addition, Karlsruher Bädergesellschaft mbH (KBG) is 100% owned by KVVH. It operates the Europabad, a "fun pool" that opened next to the Europahalle on March 15, 2008, and KBG was founded on July 1, 2002 to build it.

In addition, the KVVH has had a 60% stake in the fan-pool opened in 1982 by various clubs since January 1st, 2009 .

Separately, there is still the urban own establishment "Bäderbetriebe Karlsruhe" which is the near the on April 3, 1873 fairground opened Vierordtbad operates, as well as the indoor pools Weiherhofbad in Durlach (1975), Adolf-Ehrmann-Bad Neureut (1964, together with the Local administration) and that in Grötzingen (1974, club and school swimming) as well as the outdoor pools Sonnenbad (1915, formerly Rheinhafenbad, open almost all year round), Rheinstrandbad Rappenwört (1929), Rüppurr (1953) and Turmbergbad in Durlach (1907).

Rhine ports

The administration of the Rhine ports of Karlsruhe is not a company of its own, but a division directly subordinate to the KVVH . Its history began with the construction of the city port from 1898 to 1901, and the oil port further north was added in 1963. An excursion boat has also been in operation since 1972.

Since July 1, 1997, the Rhine ports have been the operational business of the newly founded company KVVH. On August 1, 2007, KVVH took over all of the railway facilities in the Rheinhafen from the first switch after the Albbrücke at the beginning of the port, for which, according to a contract from 1939, half of the port and Deutsche Bahn were responsible, and has since acted as a railway infrastructure company , while the stretch between the port and Karlsruhe-West train station is owned by DB AG as before.
