After the 2025 federal election: Purpose Green as an economic partner for energy-efficient refurbishments
New political realities - sustainable transformation remains crucial
The 2025 federal elections have created a new political landscape: A possible grand coalition of CDU/CSU and SPD could take over the reins of government. With it comes a pragmatic, business-oriented approach to climate policy that relies heavily on market-based mechanisms. But what does this mean for the sustainable development of the building sector?
Purpose Green analyzes the impact from an ESG perspective and shows why energy-efficient refurbishments remain an economically viable and sustainable investment.
Political framework conditions and economic focus
The potential coalition between the CDU/CSU and SPD is expected to take a less ideological and more practical approach to climate policy. Companies and investors would therefore be given more scope for innovative solutions in order to achieve sustainability goals in a market economy. There will probably be a greater focus on economic incentives and technology funding to promote the refurbishment and energy optimization of buildings.
This development brings opportunities for the real estate sector: those who invest strategically in energy efficiency can not only meet legal requirements, but also benefit from stabilized and even rising property values and reduced energy costs in the long term.

Energy-efficient refurbishment: an economic necessity
Energy efficiency and sustainable buildings remain of central importance in the new political constellation. Regardless of short-term political decisions, the pressure on real estate owners and investors remains high.
- Fundamental legal requirements at both EU and national level remain in place: The reduction of CO₂ emissions remains an integral part of European and national regulation.
- Market trends speak for sustainability: International developments and the increasing importance of ESG criteria in the financial world are making sustainable real estate more valuable.
- Investors pay attention to sustainable assets: Financing decisions are linked to sustainability criteria - energy-inefficient properties are becoming less attractive.
Economic advantages as a core argument
Sustainability is not a question of "if", but of "how". Economic efficiency plays a decisive role here:
- Higher return on investment (ROI): Energy-efficient properties reduce operating costs in the long term and increase market value.
- Independence through energy efficiency: Reduced dependence on fossil fuels ensures stability in economically uncertain times.
- Government subsidies as a bonus: Even if political subsidies are constantly being adjusted, the real advantage of sustainable refurbishment remains in the long-term savings and increases in value.
