Have heating costs doubled in 2022 compared to 2021? Then it is worthwhile for private households to apply for financial assistance. The state hardship grants apply to non-pipeline energy sources such as heating oil, liquid gas, wood pellets, wood briquettes, coal or coke. They do not apply to district heating or gas. There is a maximum of 2000 euros per household. The assistance can be applied for online at the latest by Friday, October 20, via the website https://driveport.de/brennstoffhilfe-rechner/. Necessary forms for applications in paper form can be ordered via the hotline 0711 / 12 61 600.
Information about necessary evidence for the application and answers to frequently asked questions can be found on the site of the Ministry of the Environment of Baden-Württemberg:
