Greenhouse gas emissions are to be reduced by 60 - 70 percent by 2030, by 70 - 80 percent by 2040 and by 80 - 95 percent by 2050. The guiding principle for action is the maximum emission reduction for the country.

By the year 2040, the energy demand in the overall balance in Thuringia should be covered by a mix of renewable energies.

Buildings should ensure a minimum share of renewable energies of 25 percent from 2030 in the case of renovations that require notification and approval. However, if the building owners receive funding for the purpose of climate protection from state funds, the minimum share is 50 percent.
