Germany: 80 Millionen gemeinsam für Energiewechsel

Mobilise households for the Energiewende together

Germany's 80 Millionen gemeinsam für Energiewechsel (80 Million Together for the Energy Transition) campaign mobilises households, companies, and municipalities to participate actively in the national energy transition. It includes Energiewechsel.de: a multilingual portal with articles, videos, tutorials, and FAQs: plus regional information booths and webinars.

What you can do

• Lower heating temperatures, switch to LED lighting, and track savings using portal guides
• Apply for BEG (Federal Funding for Efficient Buildings) subsidies for heat pumps, insulation, and renewables
• Host a neighbourhood energy-saving workshop using campaign materials

How to participate

• Visit Energiewechsel.de (linked from the national campaign)
• Join municipal events and webinars listed on the portal

Why it matters

Behaviour change sticks when backed by funding and local booths: not guilt alone. Germany's campaign pairs everyday habits with renovation finance.
