April 2007 reduction of electricity consumption by 11% through massive increase in energy efficiency Increase of renewables in the heat sector up to 14% Coalition agreement between CDU, CSU und SPD (November, 11 th 2005)  100 % increase in energy productivity (GDP per primary energy input) in Germany from 1990 until 2020

11 E F F I C I E N C Y D E C I D E S “Climate and Energy Package” of Meseberg (August 2007). Two-step amendment of Energy Saving Ordinance (Minimum requirements for new and existing buildings) 2009: 30% stronger requirements; 2012: another 30% planned. Prolongation and modification of the renewable energy sources act (EEG:guaranted feed-in tariffs for renewables). Renewable heat act: Share of 15% renewables (heat/ dhw) mandatory for newly constructed buildings. Retention of CO 2 rehabilitation programme at the current level until 2011 (1,4 Bill. € per year) and increase of promotion of market penetration for renewables (Marktanreizprogramm) up to 350 Mio. € p.a. 200 Mio. € p.a. (soft-loans) for Energy modernisation of social infrastructure (schools, kindergartens, etc.) Stepwise substitution of night-storage heaters Support for CHP-applications Facilitation of heat cost billing procedure

12 Current developments Massive Increase of energy prices leads to a public debate on the social burden sharing of climate protection and energy efficiency strategies New Instruments in discussion: donation of 150 € per A++ refrigerator tax reductions for CO2/energy efficient cars Massive enlargement and modifications of the 1,4 Bill. € CO2-Rehabilitation program (softloans) for the refurbishment of building stock.
