Regional funding programmes for heat pumps in Thuringia 2024

Various funding programmes are offered in Thuringia to support the use of heat pumps and the improvement of energy efficiency in companies and municipalities. These programmes offer financial support in the form of grants and are aimed at reducing CO2 emissions and advancing the state's energy and climate protection goals.

Important funding programmes

  • Green invest
    Focusses on the promotion of energy consulting and energy-related investments by companies in order to support energy efficiency measures. This programme helps to reduce CO2 emissions and promotes the achievement of energy and climate protection targets in Thuringia. The programme is a grant in the form of de minimis aid, with the amount of the grant being calculated according to the type of project. Eligible measures include energy consultations and investments to optimise processes, which can also be supported with a grant.

This is a non-repayable grant in the form of proportional funding, which is subsidised in two categories: Measures for the area of climate protection and the area of adaptation to the consequences of climate change. Municipalities, associations, local authorities and companies, legal entities under public law, non-profit organisations and voluntary welfare organisations are eligible for funding.
