The new amended Building Energy Act (GEG) acts as a driver for eligible energy management. Municipalities, municipal companies and public institutions are therefore faced with the task of recording energy consumption more transparently, systematically evaluating energy measures and operating their buildings economically and in compliance with the law in the long term. <\/strong><\/p>

At the same time, the GEG – in conjunction with federal and state funding programmes – opens up new financial scope for targeted investments in energy efficiency, digitalization and sustainable building management.<\/p>

Structured, data-based energy management is a key element in meeting legal requirements. It creates the necessary basis for presenting consumption in a comprehensible manner, quantifying potential savings in a reliable manner and planning, prioritizing and documenting measures in line with funding requirements. Without valid energy and operating data, neither profitability analyses nor funding applications can be presented in a legally compliant and auditable manner. <\/p>

In the current special issue“DIE BESTEN – Produkte und Dienstleistungen f\u00fcr Kommunen<\/a>” of the trade journal der gemeinderat<\/a>, a specialist article shows how municipalities can use the Building Energy Act not only as a regulatory obligation, but also as a strategic opportunity. The article explains how systematic energy management can create the conditions for eligibility for subsidies – for example through transparent consumption data, structured inventories and comprehensible evidence for funding bodies and supervisory authorities. <\/p>

It becomes clear that energy management is not an additional bureaucratic burden, but an economically sensible control instrument that secures investments, enables subsidy quotas and reduces operating costs in the long term. For heterogeneous municipal real estate portfolios in particular, it forms the bridge between legal requirements, subsidy logic and operational implementation. <\/p>
