The Federal Environment Ministry's funding programme now offers more opportunities for your climate protection projects. The programme has been significantly expanded with new funding priorities and improved funding for financially weak municipalities. A separate funding priority has been introduced for the renovation of day-care centres, schools, youth leisure facilities, sports facilities and swimming pools. The chances of receiving funding are good, because so far all eligible applications have been funded.
Since summer 2008, the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) has been providing funding on the basis of the "Guideline for the promotion of climate protection projects in social, cultural and public institutions within the framework of the National Climate Protection Initiative"(Municipal Directive) climate protection projects in municipalities.
The interest in the municipal guideline is great: between 2008 and 2014, more than 7,000 projects were funded. Funds are available again this year and in the coming years. In 2014 alone, the funding volume amounted to more than 60 million euros and has once again resulted in all eligible applications being funded. The various funding priorities of the Municipal Guidelines can be found on the following pages.
Applications can be submitted to Project Management Jülich from now (1 October 2015) until 31 March 2016. All documents, fact sheets and further information can be found here.A brief description of the various funding priorities of the Municipal Guidelines can be found below.
With the 2015 information tour, the Service and Competence Centre: Municipal Climate Protection (SK:KK), in cooperation with the federal states, provides information on the funding available for municipalities in climate protection in 2016. Everyone who is interested in the funding opportunities for municipalities in climate protection is invited to the information events - whether as an applicant, as an advisory institution or as a multiplier.
The upcoming SK:KK info tour events around the Eifel are:
25.11.2015 SK:KK - Information Tour 2015: Kaiserslautern
02.12.2015 SK:KK - Information Tour 2015: Wiesbaden
If you have any questions about the Municipal Guidelines, please contact the Service and Competence Centre: Municipal Climate Protection (SK:KK) at: 030-39001 170

Oliver Wainwright visits the International Building Exhibition (IBA), a six-year experiment to build a zero-carbon extension to Hamburg in northern Germany. The project is home to all kinds of Passivhaus buildings, solid timber construction, the recycling of greywater, and even a building with a bubbling bio-reactive algae facade. Wainwright meets some of the key representatives of the project to examine a variety of different examples of eco architecture

Government aid for housing construction drives up prices, but does not bring more homes. This is how an assessment by the DIW can be interpreted.

Grenzach-Wyhlen, December 5, 2019. Hydrogen production in Grenzach-Wyhlen in Baden-Württemberg (not far from Basel) can start. Energiedienst today received approval for the operation of the power-to-gas plant. All technical verifications and official clarifications have now been fulfilled.
In the state-of-the-art plant, Energiedienst produces hydrogen from self-generated green electricity using electrolysis. The electricity comes from the company's own hydroelectric power plant on the same site. The environmentally friendly hydrogen will initially be used in nearby industry. It is also planned to use it in local public transport. A comprehensive concept also envisages that the waste heat generated during electrolysis will be used to heat a new residential area. By linking electricity, mobility and heat supply in this way - keyword: sector coupling - the plant should help to reduce CO2 emissions and support the energy transition.
A year ago, Energiedienst officially inaugurated the power-to-gas plant together with the State Minister of Economics, Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU).
The plant has an output of one megawatt. In addition, there is 0.3 megawatts from an affiliated research facility of the ZSW (Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research). The state of Baden-Württemberg has funded this as part of a lighthouse project.
At the end of October, Energiedienst also submitted a concept for hydrogen for consideration in the "Reallabore der Energiewende" ideas competition run by the German Federal Ministry of Economics. The Federal Government attaches a key role to hydrogen, especially for the mobility of the future. The funding commitment from Berlin is still pending.
