Le gouvernement adopte une nouvelle loi sur la modernisation des bâtiments

Le gouvernement fédéral a approuvé le projet de loi sur la modernisation des bâtiments. Cette nouvelle législation remplace la loi controversée sur le chauffage de l'ancienne coalition « feu tricolore » et vise à offrir une plus grande flexibilité dans le choix des systèmes de chauffage.

Le conseil des ministres a adopté le projet de loi le 13 mai à Berlin. La ministre fédérale de l'Économie, Katherina Reiche, a déclaré que le remplacement forcé des chauffages n'est plus d'actualité. Les chaudières à gaz pourront continuer d'être installées à condition d'utiliser une part croissante de combustibles neutres en CO2 à partir de 2029.

La ministre de la Construction, Verena Hubertz, a souligné que le chapitre de l'ancienne loi est désormais clos. Le projet indique que les locataires et les propriétaires bénéficient d'une plus grande liberté de décision.

Le Conseil national de contrôle des normes (Nationaler Normenkontrollrat) a vivement critiqué le texte. Son président, Lutz Goebel, l'a qualifié de l'un des projets les plus mal conçus et les moins pratiques de ces dernières années. Le conseil a exhorté le Bundestag à réviser le projet au cours du processus parlementaire.
