- The German government will provide lower subsidy rates for measures undertaken to reduce the energy use of buildings, like changing windows or installing a heat pump.
- To combat the undesirable continued dominance of gas heating, the government continues to provide funding for heater switches, albeit at a significantly lower rate as of Monday.
- In concrete terms, switching windows to better-insulated ones will now be subsidised at 15% going forward, while the switch to a heat pump will be subsidised at up to 40% of the sticker price.
