Legal basis for contracting with heat pumps
According to policy makers, heat pumps are a key component of the heating transition. In combination with renewable energy systems, the climate targets are to be achieved, with both decentralised generation plants and the conclusion of power purchase agreements (PPAs) contributing to implementation. At the same time, the use of fossil fuels is becoming less interesting as they have not proven to be crisis-proof. Through the Fuel Emissions Trading Act (BEHG) and the CO2 Cost Allocation Act, the legislator has also taken the initiative to promote the sustainable supply of heat and hot water.

Extension of the KWKG – consequences for practice and heat planning
CHP plants are an important pillar of the electricity system based on renewable energies in particular. However, the extension of the KWKG until 31 December 2030 is also an important step for the regenerative heat supply. Contracting providers have been using innovative CHP solutions in the neighbourhood context for years in order to meet the heating and electricity needs of tenants in a highly efficient manner. What impact will the extension of the KWKG have on existing and new heat supply solutions - also with regard to heat planning?
