Designation: Funding guidelines for renewable heat


URL: https://www.ifbhh.de/api/services/document/4312

The promotion of renewable energies for the heat supply of buildings serves the goal of permanently reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Hamburg. This means that the building that is to be supplied with eligible renewable heat must be in Hamburg.
Various measures are funded with this funding program:

• Solar thermal from 20m²
• bioenergy plants
• heat pumps
• Geothermal energy, PVT and heat from waste water
• heat distribution networks
• heat accumulator
• Multiple use of areas, including the use of renewable heat

The maximum funding amount per project is EUR 500,000. This maximum amount applies both to projects for which funding from just one module is granted and to projects for which funding from several modules of this funding program is granted.
For more detailed information on the individual measures, please refer to the funding program.
