Denkmal unter Strom
Die gewagte und futuristische Architektur der Shell Tankstelle an der Erlenstegenstraße in Nürnberg aus den 60er Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts ist durch elektrische Impulse zum zweiten Leben erweckt. Die historische Tankstelle wurde komplett renoviert. Unter dem geschwungenen, denkmalgeschützten Spannbetondach aus dem Jahr 1958 können nun Autofahrerinnen und Autofahrer ihre Elektroautos schnell aufladen.
Die traditionsreiche Tankstelle, ein überregionales Industriedenkmal und die einzige ihrer Art in ganz Bayern, wird künftig kein Benzin oder Diesel mehr anbieten, sondern sich ganz auf die neue Mobilität konzentrieren. Insgesamt vier Shell Recharge Ultraschnellladesäulen mit 8 Ladepunkten bieten eine maximale Leistung von bis zu 300 kW und bis zu 150 kW, wenn zwei Elektroautos gleichzeitig an einer Schnellladesäule laden. Zwei davon befinden sich direkt unter dem historischen Dach. In einem kleinen Shop unter dem Dach werden demnächst Kaffee- und Getränkeautomaten die Ladezeit angenehmer gestalten.
Geschichte der Tankstelle
- Das Tankstellengebäude selbst wurde 1958 von der California-Texas Oil Company Caltex errichtet. Es handelt sich um eine sogenannte Caltex Typ 3 Tankstelle.
- Der Entwurf stammt aus dem Jahr 1956 von dem Frankfurter Architekten Willy H. Weisensee.
- Die kühne und futuristische Architektur verlieh den Tankstellen einen hohen Wiedererkennungswert. Das freitragende Betondach war nur an der Seite des Tankwarthauses verankert und wölbte sich ansonsten stützenfrei über die Tankanlage.
- Ursprünglich plante Caltex damals den Bau von 4.000 Tankstellen dieses Typs. Ende der 1960er Jahre waren bundesweit über 800 Caltex-Standorte in Betrieb.
- Unter Denkmalschutz steht das sogenannte Caltex-Gebäude, also das "geschwungene Spannbetondach mit eingezogenem, unterirdischem Kiosk". Ferner auch, gemäß Aussage des Denkmalschutzamts Nürnberg, die beiden nebenstehenden Hallen.
- Die Tankstelle wurde von DEA übernommen und später auf Shell umgeflaggt. Sie wurde in den letzten 4 Monaten renoviert und zu einem reinen EV-Hub umgebaut.
Shell und E-mobilität
Shell will bis 2050 ein Unternehmen mit Netto-Null-Emissionen werden. Ein Baustein dafür ist der Aufbau eines breiten Ladeangebotes für Elektrofahrzeuge. Dafür wurden auch auf dem deutschen Markt schon früh die Weichen gestellt. 2017 hat das Unternehmen NewMotion, den damals größten europäischen Ladeanbieter Europas gekauft, der mittlerweile in Shell Recharge Solutions unbenannt wurde. 2019 hat Shell begonnen, Shell Recharge Schnellladesäulen auf Shell Tankstellen zu bauen. 2021 hat Shell das Berliner Startup ubitricity gekauft, die das Laden an Laternen ermöglichen. Im Jahr 2022 hat Shell die SBRS GmbH übernommen, einen führenden Anbieter von Ladeinfrastrukturlösungen für kommerzielle Elektrofahrzeuge, und gleichzeitlich die ersten Shell Recharge Schnellladesäulen auf Parkplätzen von REWE und PENNY Märkten eröffnet. In diesem Jahr hat Shell die ersten Shell Recharge Schnellladesäulen auf den Parkplätzen von KFC in Betrieb genommen. Zudem besteht ein Kooperationsvertrag mit IONITY, dem Joint Venture aus Audi, BMW, Daimler, Ford, Hyundai, Porsche und Volkswagen, Schnellladesäulen entlang von Autobahnen in europäischen Ländern zu errichten.
Bis 2025 hat Shell das Ziel über 70.000 und bis 2030 über 200.000 öffentliche Ladepunkte weltweit zu betreiben.

Shell’s net carbon intensity
Also, in this press release we may refer to Shell’s “Net Carbon Intensity”, which include Shell’s carbon emissions from the production of our energy products, our suppliers’ carbon emissions in supplying energy for that production and our customers’ carbon emissions associated with their use of the energy products we sell. Shell only controls its own emissions. The use of the term Shell’s “Net Carbon Intensity” is for convenience only and not intended to suggest these emissions are those of Shell plc or its subsidiaries.
Shell’s net-Zero Emissions Target
Shell’s operating plan, outlook and budgets are forecasted for a ten-year period and are updated every year. They reflect the current economic environment and what we can reasonably expect to see over the next ten years. Accordingly, they reflect our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Net Carbon Intensity (NCI) targets over the next ten years. However, Shell’s operating plans cannot reflect our 2050 net-zero emissions target and 2035 NCI target, as these targets are currently outside our planning period. In the future, as society moves towards net-zero emissions, we expect Shell’s operating plans to reflect this movement. However, if society is not net zero in 2050, as of today, there would be significant risk that Shell may not meet this target.
Forward Looking Non-GAAP measures
This press release may contain certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of these forward-looking Non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because certain information needed to reconcile those Non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is dependent on future events some of which are outside the control of Shell, such as oil and gas prices, interest rates and exchange rates. Moreover, estimating such GAAP measures with the required precision necessary to provide a meaningful reconciliation is extremely difficult and could not be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Non-GAAP measures in respect of future periods which cannot be reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are calculated in a manner which is consistent with the accounting policies applied in Shell plc’s consolidated financial statements.
The contents of websites referred to in this press release do not form part of this press release.
We may have used certain terms, such as resources, in this press release that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) strictly prohibits us from including in our filings with the SEC.
