Germany's Schwarz-Rot Coalition Abolishes Habeck's Heating Law
BIOFUELS
The Schwarz-Rot coalition in Germany has agreed to repeal the controversial heating law implemented by former Minister Robert Habeck. Key changes include the elimination of the 65% renewable energy requirement for new heating systems, allowing continued use of oil and gas heating.
New regulations will introduce modest blending quotas for biofuels, while government subsidies for heating system replacements will continue at least until 2029. The revised law aims to provide flexibility for homeowners while addressing energy transition concerns.
