Activists Critique German Heating Reform for Social and Climate Impacts

Lisa Kadel and Paul Daiber from the initiative "Soziale Wärmewende Jetzt!" warn that Germany's proposed heating reform, which may allow new oil and gas heating systems, could lead to high costs for tenants. They argue that rising energy prices disproportionately affect those with no control over their heating systems, calling the plan socially and climatically misguided. The discussion, published in the Freitag, highlights concerns about corporate interests and inadequate housing conditions, advocating for a fairer energy transition.
