Buildings are responsible for over 40 per cent of energy consumption and 30 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions in the canton of Zurich. Since September 2022, oil and gas heating systems in existing buildings must therefore be replaced with climate-friendly alternatives at the end of their service life if this is technically and financially feasible. in 2025, CHF 61 million in funding will be available for this change. These funds will be channelled specifically into measures to improve energy efficiency and promote sustainable heating systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Stronger subsidies for larger heating replacements Reward for comprehensive building modernisation Support for decentralised heating systems The canton of Zurich is investing CHF 61 million in energy-efficient and climate-friendly buildings. Adjustments to the 2025 funding programme are intended to provide homeowners with targeted support to reduce energy consumption and promote climate protection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122970,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_surecart_dashboard_logo_width":"180px","_surecart_dashboard_show_logo":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_orders":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_invoices":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_subscriptions":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_downloads":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_billing":true,"_surecart_dashboard_navigation_account":true,"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22358,12476,12490,22698],"tags":[35329,20524,51362,51363,51364,12829,12528,14248,51365],"class_list":["post-122977","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-construction","category-immonews","category-refurbishment","category-sustainability","tag-alternatives","tag-foerderprogramm-en","tag-foerderungen-en","tag-gasheizung-en","tag-gebaeudemodernisierung-en","tag-klima-en","tag-news-en","tag-treibhausgasemissionen-en","tag-wohnklima-en"],"acf":{"bild_mit_ki_erstellt_worden":[],"lead":"The canton of Zurich is investing CHF 61 million in energy-efficient and climate-friendly buildings.

<\/strong>The 2025 subsidy programme places a particular focus on replacing larger fossil fuel heating systems. While the basic contributions for smaller systems have been reduced slightly, larger heating systems with an output of around 30 kilowatts or more will benefit from increased, performance-based subsidies. This takes account of the greater technical and economic challenges involved in such projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>A well-insulated building envelope saves heating energy, reduces heating costs and improves the indoor climate. An additional incentive is therefore provided for complete modernisations. Anyone who modernises at least 90 percent of the insulation area of the roof, facades and floors receives an additional contribution. From 2025, subsidies for modernisations in accordance with the MINERGIE standard will be linked to the additional “ECO” certification in order to take aspects such as recyclability and grey energy into account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Decentrally installed electric or fossil-fuelled heating systems pose a particular challenge. From 2030, electricity-intensive electric heating systems will be banned in the canton of Zurich. Homeowners who replace such systems with climate-friendly alternatives will now benefit from a subsidy of at least CHF 15,000 for the installation of a heat distribution system. This is intended to facilitate and speed up the costly conversion process.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
