Support of Heat Supply from RE – EEWärmeG



Focus: New buildings



Minimum share of RE in new buildings (alternatively: contingency measures like cogeneration of power and heat, waste heat, long-distance heating,

reinforced heat insulation) 

Binding target: 14% RE until 2020



Targets: reduction of CO2-emissions, protection of ressources, contribution

to a secure and sustainable energy supply 

Public buildings serving as showcases



Support of municipalities by the Ministry of the Environment

Support of Heat Supply from RE – Market Incentive Programme 

Since 1994



Focus: Existing building stock



Annual up-date of administrative regulations to new technological standards



Investment grants by the Federal Office of Economy and Export Control, lowinterest loans by the KfW-programme Renewable Energies



Volume of financial support 2013: 321 m Euro, capital expenditure: 1,23 bn Euro



A new approach contrary to EEG: public financial support vs. allocation to the electricity consumer
