Protection +)
Protection +
 Launched by the Ministry of the Environment of Baden-Wuerttemberg in
2002. The program is divided into three parts, all of which aim to reduce
CO2 emission:
–
–
–
CO2 -Minderungsprogramm – CO2 Reduction Program: this program focuses on
energy reduction in non-residential buildings, for example through the
modernization of buildings, implementation of renewable energy sources, and
the rational use of energy. The program covers a maximum of 15% of investments
up to a total of 75,000 Euros per project.
Modellprojekt Klimaschutz – Model Projects Climate Change Protection: The
promotion and distribution of future oriented and technically advanced
technologies with great emission reduction potential are the goals of this
program. Grants of up to 75,000 Euros are possible.
Beratungsprogramm Energieeffizienz – Consulting for Energy Efficiency: the aim
of this program is to increase knowledge and competence in the field of energy
efficiency. 50% of the daily fee for external consultants is covered up to a
maximum of 350 Euros for up to 5 days.

Best Practice 2: Demonstration Projects
Demonstration Projects
Rational Energy Use
 Program “Demonstration Projects of Rational Energy Use and Use of
Renewable Energy”
This program of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Baden-Wuerttemberg
supports huge development project to create a reference installations as
a demonstration examples of new innovative environmental energy
technology.
The goal of this project is to develop technical processes with lower
energy consumption and with a higher amount of used renewable energy.
This program supports projects only from enterprises with up to 500
employees and an annual turnover up to 102.26 Mio Euros. The subsidy is
to 40% of the general costs including investments.

Best Practice 3: Consultation Programs BEST
BEST, ECO +
and ECO Fit
 BEST = Betriebliches Energie- und Stoffstrommanagement
(Energy and Material Flow Management for Enterprises)
The target group is composed of primarily SME with the aim of improving their
energy and material efficiency.
The program offers two different levels of the consulting support:
a) BEST START – an initial consultation
b) BEST INTENSIV – a detailed consultation
–
BEST START covers subsidies of up to 50% of the total consulting costs to 5,000 Euros.
Generally it is realized within a so-called “convoy” – a group to 10 enterprises – and
includes consultations and workshops.
–
BEST INTENSIV covers subsidies of up to 50% of the total consulting cost to 20,000 Euros. It
covers a detailed analysis of the entire enterprise or of a segment with a compilation of
all energy, material and finance data. The consultants build a process flow model during
the assessment and identify improvement potentials. This includes all kind of ecoinnovations including technical, logistical, management and communication solutions.

 Directed only towards SME including manufactures
 ECO+ is a consulting program for manufactures and micro-enterprises. It
is an initial step to improve the eco-efficiency in micro enterprises with
the help of checklists. The Eco+ check is free of charge for the user.
About 200 projects have been finalized. The budget of this program is
about 300,000 Euros.
 ECO-Fit covers SME and includes a two-day-assessment of the
enterprises. The goal is an improvement of the environmental
performance with short-term solutions. The enterprises should realize
maximum results with a relatively small effort.
