The coalition of traffic lights promises higher funding rates for new heaters. However, experts warn that some individuals seeking renovation may end up worse off than with the previous subsidies.
Gut zwei Monate ist es her, dass die Ampelkoalition nach monatelangem Herumschrauben den regierungsinternen Heizungskeller verließ. An diesem Freitag soll der Bundestag das novellierte Gebäudeenergiegesetz (GEG) beschließen – so, wie die Fraktionen von SPD, Grünen und FDP den Gesetzentwurf Ende Juni vereinbart haben.
The municipalities should first create a heat planning in the core, before property owners are only allowed to install heating systems that run on at least 65 percent renewable energy. However, the deputies will not decide on something that is equally interesting for owners this week. The guideline on how much funding each party will receive from January 1, 2024, is not yet complete but is already being heavily criticized.
