Heat transition: Private households alone have to pay the green gas quota - costs open in the paper
The Ministry of Economics presents the key points for the green gas quota. Industry, commerce and the transport sector are exempt.
The German Federal Ministry of Economics has presented a draft for a green gas and green heating oil quota. The quota will start at 1% in 2028 and increase to 50% by 2040 and 100% by 2045. The quota applies to gas and heating oil used in private households for heating, but not to industrial, commercial, or transportation sectors. Fuel traders are responsible for meeting the quota by blending an increasing proportion of climate-neutral fuel into the gas and heating oil they supply.
