Freiburg: the Berndt Koberstein Prize for Living Together and Solidarity in Freiburg, endowed with 10.000.-€, was awarded for the fifth time in Freiburg's "Weinschlösschen". The Tenement House Syndicate, which began in the early 1980s as a small cooperative on the Grether site, has developed into an association of 111 house projects with more than 2,000 residents in various cities and rural areas. In the individual houses people can live cheaply and independently, their organisation in the syndicate prevents the properties from ever being sold. They are thus withdrawn from the market and from profit-making.
With its decision, the jury of the Berndt Koberstein Award acknowledges the continuous great contribution of the Rental Houses Syndicate to the permanent preservation of affordable rental housing. "At a time when housing shortages and galloping rent increases are increasingly impairing the basic right to housing, the work of the Tenement House Syndicate is more valuable than ever," said the jury. The fact that the concept of the Tenement Houses Syndicate places a large part of the responsibility and decision-making authority in the hands of house communities receives special praise. "This creates responsible and solidary living together", says jury member Bernd Obrecht.

In the Bavarian 10,000 Houses Program, there is now also money for electricity storage units if the user installs them together with a PV system. Until the end of 2020, 24 million euros are available for the entire program.
The Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs has launched the new photovoltaic storage programme. It is part of the well-known 10,000 Homes Programme. From 1 August, owners of detached and semi-detached houses can apply for funding for a new electricity storage unit in conjunction with a photovoltaic system. In addition, there is the possibility for a grant for the installation of a private charging station for electric vehicles.
"We need to make better use of the sun's potential," says Minister of Economics Hubert Aiwanger. " With the new support programme, we will give additional momentum to the energy transition. It sets the right incentives to advance the decentralised expansion of renewable energies in Bavaria and will actively involve citizens in the energy transition." Citizens can also reduce their electricity costs with the help of the programme. The smart controls and connections provided for under the funding will also enable plant operators to participate in regional direct electricity marketing in the future.
The subsidy amount is graduated according to the capacity of the battery storage unit and ranges from 500 euros for a three-kilowatt-hour storage unit to 3,200 euros for a 30-kilowatt-hour storage unit. The prerequisite, however, is that the applicant simultaneously installs a new photovoltaic system whose output in kilowatt-peak is at least equal to the value of the capacity of the battery storage unit. For an additional charging station for electric vehicles, the subsidy is 200 euros. The Ministry of Economics is providing up to 24 million euros for the 10,000 Houses Programme until the end of 2020.
The successful EnergySystemHouse programme component will be continued. There, too, the use of solar energy and its storage in combination with energy-efficient refurbishment or particularly efficient houses and systems will be promoted. "The targeted promotion of innovative technologies is working, manufacturers are developing new systems and bringing them to market," says Aiwanger. "The number of particularly efficient heat pumps on the market has increased from 40 models to over 160 models. In the case of high-efficiency heat storage systems, the eligible models have increased fivefold to more than 250 models in the same period. Energy advisors report that many building owners are improving their plans and constructing or refurbishing buildings much more efficiently because of the programme."
All subsidies of the 10,000 Houses Programme are coordinated with the federal programmes and can be combined. It is very easy to apply electronically. Further information and the application platform can be found under this link.
