Dear Real Estate Friends
"MuKEn" is neither a new child name nor an Asian tribe. But it could soon affect your heating system. On January 1, 2018, the new nationwide energy law MuKEn with regulations in the building sector came into force. Although the implementation of the cantonal regulations in the Canton of Zurich is still in the parliamentary phase, it is assumed that the current regulations will soon be replaced by the new ones. While this could mean an obligation to generate own electricity for new buildings, the focus for old buildings is on replacing fossil heating systems. In the future at least 10% renewable energy is to be used for heat generation or must be compensated by increasing efficiency (e.g. by means of additional thermal insulation). Although oil and gas heating systems will not be banned, they can no longer be replaced without additional expense. The replacement of oil and gas heating systems will then become more expensive and complex than it (still) is the case today
yours sincerly,
Claude Ginesta
