District heating, heat pump, pellets:
Which technology fits your zone?
Municipal heat planning determines which technologies are economically viable. Renovating without knowing the heat plan puts your investment at risk.
Indicative technology assessment in 3 minutes.
Why the technology choice is complex
District heating is only available in designated supply zones - not every location will be connected.
Heat pumps require good building envelopes and low flow temperatures - not every existing building is suitable.
Pellet boilers offer independence but face political reservations in some municipalities.
Subsidy levels differ significantly by technology, heat plan zone and application timing.

Technology choice in the heat plan context
Systematic technology comparison
Check heat plan zone
Which supply zone is your property in? District heating priority, decentralised or transition?
Assess building suitability
Analyse building envelope, heating load, flow temperature and existing infrastructure.
Compare economics
Calculate investment, running costs, subsidies and life-cycle costs for each technology.
Secure the decision
Document technology choice, prepare subsidy application and plan implementation.
- Technology comparison with cost-benefit analysis
- Location-specific recommendation in heat plan context
- Subsidy eligibility check per technology

Risks of wrong technology choice
- Investment in technology without long-term supply security in the heat plan zone.
- Missed subsidies by choosing a non-prioritised technology.
- Costly retrofit or technology switch after just a few years.
