    The heat plan determines
    whether your renovation pays off.

    Renovating without knowing the heat plan puts your investment at risk. Municipal heat planning determines which heating technology is economically viable in your area and which subsidies apply.

    The reality for property owners

    Cities with over 100,000 residents must present a heat plan by 30 June 2026. Over 30% are still behind schedule.

    Without a published heat plan, it remains unclear whether district heating, heat pumps or other solutions will be available long-term.

    Heating replacement and renovation without knowing the heat plan can lead to lock-in effects and misguided investments.

    Subsidy conditions and transition deadlines depend directly on the status of municipal heat planning.

    Does this sound like your situation?

    Let's clarify in a free initial consultation whether and how we can help.

    Why the heat plan determines your renovation decision

    Municipal heat planning under the Heat Planning Act (WPG) defines which areas will be supplied by district heating, hydrogen or decentralised solutions in the future. For owners this means: the technology choice for heating replacement is no longer a purely private decision but depends on municipal planning. Those who invest before the heat plan is published make decisions under uncertainty.
    Heat Planning Act (WPG): deadline 30 June 2026 for cities >100,000 residents, 30 June 2028 for remaining municipalities. Status: 2026-Q2.

    Risks without heat plan awareness

    • Misguided investment in heating technology not foreseen in the heat plan.
    • Subsidies lapse or are reduced because the technology doesn't match the supply zone.
    • Lock-in effect: long-term commitment to a suboptimal solution.
