If you opt for an energy consultation for residential buildings, you are entitled to a subsidy of 80 per cent. Authorised energy consultants will apply for the funding on your behalf.
The Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) programme "Federal funding for energy advice for residential buildings" is available for residential buildings. It is aimed at
- Owners of detached houses and apartment blocks,
- Homeowners' associations,
- Those entitled to usufruct and
- Leaseholders and
- And tenants.
Funding is provided for consultancy costs amounting to 50 per cent of the eligible consultancy fee:
- a maximum of EUR 650.00 for detached or semi-detached houses and
- a maximum of EUR 850.00 for residential buildings with three or more residential units
Condominium owners' associations (WEG) receive a one-off bonus of EUR 250.00 per WEG if the results of the consultation are presented at a condominium owners' meeting.
The funding programme is handled by an energy consultant. They apply for the funds themselves. The energy consultant receives the energy consulting subsidy from BAFA and issues you with an invoice reduced by the subsidy amount.
The results of the consultation must be presented by the energy consultant in an energy consultation report, preferably an individual renovation roadmap (iSFP). He or she will hand this over to you and explain it to you.
Funding is provided in accordance with the provisions of the de minimis regulation if the owner of the residential building is a company as defined in the recommendation concerning the definition of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
