  • Cantons are phasing out fossil fuel heaters

    Cantons are phasing out fossil fuel heaters

    The Conference of Cantonal Energy Directors ( EnDK ) passed "a comprehensive paper on the principles of building policy 2050+" at its plenary meeting on August 26, the EnDK informs in a statement . Among other things, it stipulates that by 2030 at the latest, no more fossil fuel heating systems will be installed in Switzerland. This is the only way Switzerland can achieve its goal of emitting no net CO2 by 2050, writes the EnDK. The future cantonal energy laws must be based on this principle decided by the EnDK.

    In the new policy paper, value is also placed on electricity production on the building itself. Above all, photovoltaic systems are to be used on roofs and facades. "The building will become an energy hub that not only consumes energy for the usual applications, but also increasingly uses it for the rapidly increasing electromobility and produces and stores electricity itself," Mario Cavigelli (CVP) is quoted as saying in the statement. The Head of the Department for Infrastructure, Energy and Mobility of the Canton of Graubünden, who is leaving the Government Council at the end of the year, handed over his office as President of the EnDK to the Head of the Department of Finance and Energy of the Canton of Valais, Roberto Schmidt (CVP). .

    Canton-owned buildings should be operated exclusively with renewable energies as soon as possible. The cantons are also currently preparing for a possible supply crisis. Here, too, the cantons want to “set an example” and coordinate the development of their own energy-saving measures, writes the EnDK.
