Noah's Ark fountain in action

Energy consulting

In cooperation with the NRW consumer advice center, the pilgrimage town of Kevelaer offers energy advice for private households. Once a month, Mr. Klapper answers all questions relating to building renovation, renewable energies and individual energy consumption. The consultation is free of charge thanks to funding from the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection.

Further information on the dates can be found at ALTBAUNEU under local advice.

Further consulting options

If you are looking for advice that goes beyond a free initial consultation, you can find an overview of some energy consultants in the city area in the expert search on the AltBauNeu website.

There is also a search function on the Energy Efficiency Experts page where you can find experts for the federal government's funding programs for energy efficiency in residential buildings.
