How companies benefit from subsidies

Although the German government's sustainability measures resulting from the EU Green Deal are increasing the requirements for buildings, there are more and easier to obtain funding opportunities. We offer solutions with which you can benefit from federal subsidies for energy efficiency.

Federal funding for building sustainability

We support you on your way to a smart buliding

With the Federal Funding for Efficient Buildings (BEG), the federal government's energy-efficient building funding is being restructured and given a practice-oriented approach. Early modernization of building technology is important and particularly attractive now with the federal funding for efficient buildings. We support you on your way to a smart building with solutions and concepts that are tailored to your challenges and requirements. Get in touch with our experts and find out how you can best benefit from the new BEG. We will be happy to support you with concrete advice and individual project development.

Increase energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions

Increase the energy efficiency of your company and reduce CO2 emissions with sustainable solution concepts. Thanks to the federal funding for energy and resource efficiency in the economy, comprehensive measures are funded – from concept development to the acquisition of efficient systems with the installation of intelligent metering, control and regulation technology as well as energy management software to the energetic optimization of systems and processes. We will be happy to advise you on your individual project
in order to find the optimal concept and receive maximum funding. Get in touch with our experts.

Eligible Siemens solution portfolio

The key to greater flexibility and efficiency in building operation is the interaction of the individual trades. With a modernization of the management system to an integrated building management platform Desigo CC, automation system upgrades and integration of intelligent field devices, your building becomes an ecosystem that transforms building data into value-added data. You can also use digital services. Automatically monitor the performance of your technical systems, increase the well-being of building users or significantly reduce the energy consumption of your systems. The AI- driven and platform- open applications of Building X eliminate complexity, reduce data silos, improve building performance, and make buildings more sustainable.

Funding amount and object of funding

Since January 2021, building operators can apply for BEG funding for non-residential buildings from BAFA. The subsidy is 15% of eligible costs, targeting private-sector and municipal modernizations.
Funding covers:

  • Installation and replacement of measurement, control and regulation technology for increased building automation
  • Measures improving energy efficiency on the building envelope (e.g. windows, doors, wall or roof insulation)
  • Installation of efficient heat generators or heating technology
  • Measures to optimize the heating distribution system to increase energy efficiency
    Specialist planning and construction supervision.
