What is the Renewable Heat Act (EWärmeG)?
The Renewable Heat Act is a state law for Baden-Württemberg that affects owners of existing residential buildings who replace their heating system from 1 January 2010. The law stipulates that when heating systems in residential buildings are replaced, 15 per cent of the heat generated must come from renewable energies. This is intended to help promote the use of renewable energies in heat generation and reduce CO2 emissions.
What possibilities does it offer?
The Renewable Energy Heat Act offers various ways to fulfil this requirement, including the use of solar systems, pellet or wood heating, bio-oil or biogas, heat pumps or appropriate thermal insulation. The exact requirements and options depend on various factors such as the living space and the chosen energy source.
If you have already installed and use a system for the utilisation of renewable heat energy before the EWärmeG came into force in 2008, you are exempt from the legal requirements, regardless of whether you cover 15 percent of the heat energy requirement.

What is the the Renewable Energy Heat Act and why is it important?
The the Renewable Energy Heat Act, short for Renewable Heat Act, is a legal regulation that promotes the use of renewable energies in the area of heat supply. It is important because it contributes to the reduction of CO2 emissions and promotes the use of sustainable energy sources. The Act incentivises the use of renewable energies in heating systems in order to drive forward the energy transition in the heating sector.
What requirements does the the Renewable Energy Heat Act place on building owners?
The the Renewable Energy Heat Act stipulates that building owners must cover a certain proportion of their heating requirements from renewable energies. The exact requirements can vary depending on the federal state. As a rule, measures such as the installation of solar thermal systems, heat pumps or the use of biomass are subsidised. Our experts will be happy to advise you on how you can implement the legal requirements efficiently.
What are the advantages of complying with the Renewable Energy Heat Act?
Compliance with the Renewable Energy Heat Act brings not only ecological but also economic benefits. By increasing the use of renewable energies, building owners can reduce their energy costs in the long term and benefit from subsidy programmes.
