Housing construction has great potential to contribute to resource conservation. For this reason, NRW.BANK supports developers with a new additional loan under the state's housing promotion programme.
Wood as a building material already contributes to climate protection during the construction of a building. This is why the Ministry of Home Affairs, Municipal Affairs, Building and Equality has introduced a new additional loan for construction projects with a high wood content in the context of its housing promotion programme. Regardless of whether the project involves the construction of a new building or the modernisation of existing properties, NRW.BANK offers attractive development loans under the state's housing promotion programme to create affordable and modern housing.
Attractive low interest rates with high redemption discounts of 15 to 25 percent, and partial crediting against equity, as well as a long fixed interest rate.
"Housing developers and investors who opt for a 30-year commitment period are now rewarded by the development bank for North Rhine-Westphalia with an even higher redemption discount of an additional 5 percentage points. For special aspects - such as building with wood - the repayment discount is even 50 percent. In addition, the initial interest rate on the development loans is now uniformly 0.0 percent in NRW for a period of 15 years. In modernisation promotion, building owners can now benefit from a repayment discount of up to 30 percent (regularly 20 percent) if they use certified ecological insulation materials or achieve an above-average energy standard."

Over the last 30 years, numerous tools have been developed to assess the ecological or sustainable aspects of buildings. This book discusses the role these tools can play in the implementation of the UN's 'New Urban Agenda'.
The 67-page book provides an up-to-date overview of the world's most important building assessment tools. It is available as a free download:

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

The new housing development "Ludmilla Wohnpark" was built in Landshut with more than 180 residential units in plus-energy construction. Five single-family houses, two semi-detached houses, six terraced houses and eight multi-family houses with a total of 55 flats were built on a plot of around 7,300 square metres.
Researchers from Munich University of Applied Sciences and the Technical University of Dresden are evaluating the quarter and optimising the technology in operation. There is an initial report on this in the BINE-Info: www.bine.info/...plusenergie-konzept-in-siedlung-getestet
(the ESD info service was discontinued at the end of 2020)
