  • Canton of Lucerne increases funding for energy

    Canton of Lucerne increases funding for energy

    The canton of Lucerne is increasing its contribution to the Energy 2022 funding program by CHF 3.5 million compared to the previous year to CHF 5.5 million. Together with the basic amount and the federal supplement, a total of around 23 million francs is available. Private individuals can submit their applications for grants to increase energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy in their own four walls from January 10th.

    As stated in a communication from the canton, the funding program has been checked and optimized after five years of experience. The inclusion of important interest groups was helpful. “Cooperation with the trade, with the various associations and with the university is important so that we can continue the success story of the energy funding program,” said Fabian Peter, the government councilor responsible for construction, the environment and energy.

    The most important changes for the year 2022 include new funding measures such as connection to a heating network with renewable energies, non-automatic wood firing and charging infrastructure for e-mobility in existing apartment buildings. There were also adjustments to the funding rates. Renewals of building insulation are now subsidized with 60 instead of 40 francs per square meter. The subsidy rates for solar thermal systems will be doubled. In addition, there are now flat-rate subsidy rates for building services up to 15 kilowatts, for example for a heat pump, a wood-burning stove or a district heating connection.
