The approval of applications received in the funding program for energy-saving measures in buildings will stop for the time being on 31.12.2024. All applications that are received in full with all required documents by this date will be processed and decided with the budget funds from 2024 as long as these are available.
It will still be possible to submit funding applications in 2025. Funding decisions for applications submitted from 01.01.2025 will be issued once the City of Aachen's budget has been approved by the Cologne district government. Approval is expected in April/May 2025 at the latest.
You will receive the "Approval for early start of measures" in the service portal promptly after submitting your application so that you can already start implementing your planned measures and comply with the guideline requirement of "submitting the application before the start of the measure". Please note: Approval for the early start of measures does not constitute a funding commitment.
As soon as the budget has been approved, the processing of applications from 2025 will begin. We will publish a corresponding notification here.

The new funding guideline "Energy-saving measures in buildings" is now available. The overview of the funded measures has also been updated accordingly and is available for download.
The municipal funding "Energy-saving measures in buildings" has been adapted to the new federal funding framework (BEG EM). Where possible, the two funding pots should not be mutually exclusive and citizens should be given the opportunity to combine funding.Funding in the area of building technology has been changed accordingly and funding has been increased for measures that are not already highly subsidized via the BEG EM.
With the revision of the funding guideline, the city of Aachen is therefore focusing on building insulation. The use of sustainable insulation materials is particularly highly subsidized with a funding rate of €50/m², while petroleum-based insulation materials are now excluded from funding. The change in funding towards sustainability is also reflected in the decision to only fund conventional insulation materials without the corresponding proof of sustainability until 31.12.2026. Advice on the subject of sustainable insulation materials and the corresponding certificates is available from altbau plus.
