BAFA Approves Cooper&Hunter Heat Pumps For Efficiency

Cooper&Hunter heat pumps officially have been added to the official BAFA list in Germany! The Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control (BAFA) has helped drive Germany’s transition to clean energy for many years. Its tasks include promoting energy efficiency and the further expansion of renewable energy, thereby contributing to climate protection. This means recognition of compliance with current energy efficiency standards and the possibility for users to receive financial compensation from the state. Improvements in energy efficiency The BAFA supports the Ministry in designing many of these measures and manages their implementation An economically and ecologically balanced and secure energy supply is of prime importance for every economy. In pursuing this objective, as well as those of achieving national and international targets and reaching the main goal of climate neutrality in 2045, the federal government's top priority is to accelerate improvements in energy efficiency and the adoption of renewable energies. In order to reach these goals, the federal government has issued initiatives such as the ‘Immediate Climate Action Programme’ and ‘National Action Plan on Energy Efficiency (NAPE).’ These include a broad range of policy measures such as funding programmes and regulation to improve energy efficiency and promote the adoption of renewable energies.
