Wärmewende: Allein private Haushalte müssen Grüngasquote bezahlen – Kosten im Papier offen
Das Wirtschaftsministerium legt die Eckpunkte für die Grüngasquote vor. Industrie, Gewerbe und Verkehrssektor sind ausgenommen.
Berlin is the setting for a new proposal from the Federal Ministry of Economics for a Green Gas and Green Heating Oil quota. The paper, seen by the trade publication Handelsblatt, sets the initial value of the quota at a moderate 1% for 2028. This quota will only apply to natural gas and heating oil used directly in private homes for oil and gas heating systems. Industrial and commercial use, transportation, and electricity and district heating generation are excluded from the quota requirement, according to the paper.
The responsibility for meeting the Green Gas and Green Heating Oil quota falls on the distributors of gas and heating oil, such as fuel dealers, who must ensure that the fuel they bring to market contains an increasing proportion of climate-neutral fuel over the years. The paper does not disclose the costs associated with the quota. The coalition government has agreed on the Building Modernization Act (GModG) as part of their agreement, which includes both the Green Gas quota and a "Biotreppe" (green staircase).
