The influence of the Building Energy Act (GEG)

The topic of heating oil is also heavily influenced by the new Building Energy Act (GEG), which comes into force in 2024. There are important key points: Existing systems must be repairable by a certain date and may continue to be operated until December 31, 2044 if they are in order and the municipal heat planning allows this.

Heating oil as a classic energy source

Heating oil remains a classic energy source in many households. Over 30% of residential buildings in Germany obtain heat from heating oil, with the proportion in Lower Saxony being around 18.3%. That's around 0.4 million buildings that depend on this type of heat supply. There is increasing interest in climate-friendly alternatives such as organic heating oil or hybrid heating. These send a strong signal for the future, because organic heating oil has a significantly better CO₂ balance and is obtained from sustainable raw materials.

It is clear that there is a lot going on in the heating oil industry and both homeowners and tenants are required to find out about the planned changes and make adjustments if necessary. In times when energy-efficient solutions are becoming increasingly important, it remains to be seen how the markets and the legal situation will develop further. So keep your finger on the pulse of heating oil prices and the new legal framework!
