What do the parties in Bremen say on climate and energy?

The CDU wants to combine economic and environmental goals in business parks. This includes a solar roof requirement for new commercial buildings, easier permits for wind turbines in commercial zones, and less sealed ground.

The CDU wants business parks to be better for the climate. New company buildings must have solar panels on the roof. Wind turbines in business parks should get permits more easily. Less ground should be built over.

The CDU wants to provide more space and handling capacity for offshore wind turbines in the ports and build a “Green Energy Port” on the Weser. The facilities are also to be usable for hydrogen and its derivatives.

The CDU wants to use the ports for the shift to clean energy. Wind turbines for the sea should be loaded and serviced there. A new port on the Weser should be built for this. Hydrogen should also arrive and be processed there.

The CDU wants to further reduce emissions in the ports with a view to climate neutrality. Cargo-handling equipment is to switch to climate-friendly drives, and ships are to use electricity from shore while docked.

The CDU wants less exhaust in the port. Machines in the port should run in a climate-friendly way. Ships at the quay should get power from land. Then their engines do not have to run there.

The CDU wants to give taxi operators financial support for switching to electric cars. Each newly purchased electric taxi would receive a 10,000-euro subsidy. According to the program, nearly all of Bremen's more than 460 taxis currently run on combustion engines.

The CDU wants taxis in Bremen to run on electricity. Each new electric taxi should get 10,000 euros. The city should also pay for charging points for taxis. Today almost all taxis run on gasoline or diesel.

The CDU commits to the Paris Climate Agreement and wants Bremen to be climate-neutral by 2040 at the latest. It relies on incentives, innovation and openness to all technologies rather than blanket bans; climate action should remain affordable for everyone.

The CDU wants Bremen to be climate-neutral by 2040. Climate-neutral means the state no longer harms the climate. The CDU wants to get there with new technology and incentives. It does not want blanket bans.

The CDU wants to raise the share of renewables in electricity, heating and cooling considerably. Installed wind capacity is to grow by half to around 300 megawatts by 2030 in order to meet the climate targets in the energy sector.

The CDU wants more energy from wind and sun. This applies to electricity, heating and cooling. Wind power in Bremen should grow by half by 2030. Bremen should also save more energy.

The CDU wants to raise solar capacity in the state of Bremen to around 500 megawatts by 2030 and to 1,000 megawatts in the long run. Every suitable roof is to get a photovoltaic system, with public buildings leading by example.

The CDU wants much more power from the sun. By 2030 there should be ten times as much solar capacity as today. Every suitable roof should get solar panels. The city should start with its own buildings.

The CDU wants to give private households financial support for solar systems, including balcony modules and battery storage. Low-income households are to receive higher subsidies, and tenants are to take part in the energy transition through Mieterstrom (tenant power) systems.

The CDU wants to give households money for solar panels. This includes small panels for balconies. People with little money should get more help. Renters should also be able to use solar power from their own roof.

The CDU wants to make greater use of wind power on land and at sea and to replace older turbines with more powerful ones. Citizens are to be able to take part in projects through cooperatives.

The CDU wants more power from wind. Old wind turbines should be replaced by stronger ones. People should be able to join wind projects together.

The CDU wants heating in the state of Bremen to be climate-neutral by 2040 at the latest. Municipal heat planning is to show the cheapest and most effective renewable options for streets, neighborhoods and districts.

The CDU wants heating to work without oil and gas by 2040. The cities should make a plan for this. The plan shows the best solution for each area. That can be a heat network or a local system.

The CDU wants to make Bremen and Bremerhaven a hub for green hydrogen and expand production, grids and storage for this. In the platform's view, hydrogen is to make industry, transport and heating climate-neutral and store renewable energy over long periods.

The CDU wants Bremen to make a lot of green hydrogen. Hydrogen is a gas that stores energy. It should help the steel plant work in a climate-friendly way, for example. There should also be filling stations for hydrogen.

The CDU wants to link climate protection and the economy and support climate-friendly technologies with incentives and funding structures. Capturing, storing and using CO2 is also to be included, because the platform considers full climate neutrality unreachable otherwise.

The CDU wants to reward companies that use climate-friendly technology. It also wants CO2 to be captured and stored. CO2 is a gas that harms the climate. Public offices should issue permits faster.

The CDU wants to reduce electricity and gas shutoffs and prevent them entirely in cases of social hardship. To that end, the existing hardship fund is to be reformed. The consumer advice center is to get a climate protection management position and also advise on electric mobility.

Some people have their power or gas cut off. The CDU wants this to happen less often. In hardship cases it should not happen at all. The consumer advice center is to give more advice on energy and climate.

The CDU proposes a state fund to support climate-friendly technologies, mainly at start-ups and small and medium-sized businesses. The public sector and private investors would each take a half share in projects to mobilize more private capital.

The CDU wants a new fund for climate protection. A fund is a pool of money. The state and private investors each pay half. The money goes mainly to young and smaller companies with new climate ideas.

The CDU rejects suspending the debt brake for climate spending and instead wants a climate bond issued through the Bremer Aufbaubank (Bremen's development bank). This is meant to finance climate investments without adding new debt to the state budget.

The CDU does not want new state debt for climate protection. Instead, a state-owned bank should collect money from residents. It uses the money to build solar panels, for example. Residents get interest in return.

The FDP wants to organize the energy transition through technology-neutral sector coupling, meaning the linking of electricity, gas, heat, and transport. This includes expanding renewables, backup capacity for supply security, and support for hydrogen and synthetic fuels.

The FDP wants to link electricity, gas, heat, and transport better. This is called sector coupling. No technology should be favored. Wind power should grow. Hydrogen should get support. Energy should stay secure and affordable.

The FDP wants to increase the share of heat pumps and expand electricity and heat storage. To do so, it calls for a heat plan for the state and an expansion plan for the energy grids in Bremen and Bremerhaven.

Heat pumps heat with almost no harm to the climate. The FDP wants more of them in Bremen. The state should get a plan for heating. The power grids should also become stronger. The steel plant should get a better power line.

The FDP wants the state and its cities to make suitable land for solar and wind power available to citizen energy cooperatives. This is meant to raise public support for the energy transition. The expansion of renewables should also speed up in inner-city areas.

The FDP wants more power from sun and wind. The state and the cities should offer land for this. Citizens should run the plants together. More solar panels should also be built in the city, and faster.

The FDP wants to examine whether Bremerhaven could get its own hydrogen terminal. It also supports facilities where ships can refuel with alternative fuels. Shore power would be installed only where it proves economically and technically feasible case by case.

The FDP wants to check if Bremerhaven can get a hydrogen terminal. Ships could deliver hydrogen there. Ships should also be able to fill up with new fuels. Power from land for ships should only come where it pays off.

The FDP commits to making the state of Bremen climate neutral by 2038 and wants to implement the measures of the Enquete Commission (a parliamentary study commission) with a timeline and financing plan. The estimated 7 billion euros are to come from EU, federal, and budget funds without new borrowing.

Bremen should be climate neutral by 2038. That means Bremen no longer harms the climate. The FDP does not want new debt for this. The money should come from the EU, the federal government, and the budget.

The FDP calls for a state fund to support innovative and environmentally friendly ideas. In its view, cutting CO2 emissions requires technological progress and sustainable growth.

The FDP wants a fund for new ideas on climate protection. A fund is a pot of money. The money should flow quickly and simply. That way good ideas become real faster.

The FDP wants to implement the coastal protection master plan quickly and expand protection against heat. It points to the flood risk Bremen faces and to rising temperatures in both cities.

Bremen is at risk of flooding. The FDP wants to raise the dikes quickly. Sirens should warn people again in a disaster. People should also be better protected from heat.

The Greens want to protect people in Bremen and Bremerhaven from the effects of climate change through both climate protection and adaptation. This includes dikes against storm surges, trees to cool the cities in extreme heat, and transport routes for climate-friendly travel. Expanding renewable energy is also meant to end dependence on energy imports.

The Greens want to protect people from the effects of the climate crisis. Dikes should protect against storm floods. Trees should cool the city in hot weather. New routes should make climate-friendly travel easy. There should be more power from wind and sun.

The Greens want to switch heating to renewable energy as fast as possible, relying on district heating and heat pumps. Municipal heat planning is meant to show where and when a district heating connection will arrive. This is intended to give owners and tenants planning certainty.

The Greens want homes to be heated without oil and gas. They want more district heating and heat pumps. The cities should make a plan. The plan shows where district heating will come and when.

The Greens want to create additional state funding for energy-saving renovations in cases of social hardship. The aim is to keep high renovation costs from being passed on to tenants. Advice on renovation and saving energy is also to be expanded considerably.

Renovating a house costs a lot of money. The Greens want to give more money when people have little. Tenants should not have to pay the costs. There should also be more advice. Energy guides should help people in poorer neighborhoods save energy.

The Greens want to protect people from the health effects of hot summers with climate-adapted infrastructure and a heat action plan. Heat protection is to become mandatory at large summer events, and workplace safety rules in hot weather are to be checked more strictly.

Summers are getting hotter. That is dangerous for people's health. The Greens want a plan against heat. Authorities should warn people about heat. Big summer events must plan for heat protection.

The Greens want to convert existing buildings to be climate-neutral or climate-positive and change planning and building rules to that end. A "renovation code" (Umbauordnung) would favor existing buildings over new construction so that existing structures are preserved.

The Greens want to rebuild old buildings instead of tearing them down. The buildings should no longer harm the climate. New rules should make this easier. Bremen should push for these rules at the national level.

The Greens want all universities in the state to become climate-neutral, both in teaching and on campus. To that end, a binding sustainability strategy for all universities is to be developed and climate management made permanent.

Universities should stop harming the climate. This goes for studying and for the buildings. The Greens want a fixed plan for all universities. Climate experts should work there for the long term.

The Greens want to further speed up the energy transition in Europe and diversify international energy sources. The goal is independence from fossil fuels, especially those from Russia. In the party's view, this would also strengthen the foreign policy autonomy of Germany and the EU.

The Greens want a faster energy transition in Europe. Energy should come from more different countries. Germany should no longer depend on oil and gas from Russia. Then Russia can put less pressure on Germany.

The Greens want the state of Bremen to become climate neutral by 2038 and to carry out all recommendations of the climate inquiry commission. The administration is to get more staff, and a steering system at the top political level is to monitor CO2 savings. The climate strategy is to be written into law.

Bremen should be climate neutral by 2038. This means Bremen will then no longer harm the climate. A commission has made proposals for this. The Greens want to carry out all of them. For this, there should be more staff and fixed checks.

The Greens want a state heating law that shifts heating to district heating, local heating networks and heat pumps. Once municipal heat planning is complete, renewable heat is to become mandatory when a heating system is replaced. District heating providers are to produce almost entirely CO2-neutral heat by 2030.

The Greens want a new law on heating. Homes should stop heating with gas or oil. They should use district heating or a heat pump. District heating is heat that comes through pipes from a plant. People who put in a new heating system must follow this rule later. The party wants to help people switch.

The Greens want to expand wind power in the state of Bremen to 300 megawatts and solar power to 500 megawatts by 2030. This is meant to generate more renewable electricity within the state. Existing wind power sites are to be kept.

The Greens want more electricity from wind and sun. By 2030, Bremen should have many more wind turbines and solar panels. All places with wind turbines should stay. New and better turbines should stand there.

The Greens want to consistently apply the Klimavorbehalt (climate check) that has already been adopted. A CO2 balance is to be drawn up for all larger new projects decided by the state government and parliament. The party also plans annual targets and mandatory plans for all sectors.

The state should consider the climate in new projects. For each larger project, the CO2 output is calculated. The harm to the climate is also counted in money. Every area should get targets each year.

The Greens want to open up more sites for wind power and to approve new commercial zones in the city of Bremen only if their wind potential is fully used. Land is also to be made available for storage, grid lines and other energy transition facilities, combined with ecological compensation.

The Greens want more wind turbines in Bremen. New business zones should only be allowed with wind turbines. The Greens want to check all possible sites again. Storage and power lines also need space. Harm to nature should be made up for elsewhere.

The Greens want a solar mandate for roofs on new buildings and roof renovations, plus photovoltaics above larger parking lots. By 2030, Bremen's roofs are to carry systems with about 500 megawatts of capacity. Ground-mounted systems and fewer hurdles for balcony solar units are also planned.

The Greens want many more solar panels in Bremen. New houses and new roofs must have solar panels. Large parking lots should get solar panels too. People will get advice on this. Small solar units for balconies should become easier.

The Greens want the state of Bremen to lead with its own buildings and make them climate-neutral by 2035. Strict energy standards are to apply to renovations and new construction, and the public housing companies are to meet higher standards as well.

All public buildings should be climate-neutral by 2035. That means they no longer harm the climate. New buildings should be made of wood and use little energy. New heating systems will no longer run on gas or oil. Public housing companies should also renovate better.

The Greens want to advance energy retrofits of private residential and commercial buildings with subsidy programs, loans and more advice. The stated reason is that heating energy use must fall because electricity and district heating are limited.

Private houses should need less energy for heating. The Greens want to give money and advice for this. Poor older people should get special loans. They do not have to pay these back during their lifetime. Energy advisers should visit every home.

The Greens want to fund neighborhood climate projects permanently and set up contact points in every district. Publicly owned companies are to be required to become more sustainable, and the state is to get its own sustainability strategy.

The Greens want climate action in every neighborhood. There should be advice, courses and repair cafés. In a repair café, people fix broken things together. Public companies must do more for the environment and for people. Bremen should get a plan for sustainability.

The Greens want to launch a peatland protection program for Bremen that identifies suitable areas for rewetting. The program justifies this by saying peat soils store far more CO2 per area than forests.

Peat bogs store a lot of CO2. So the Greens want to protect bogs better. Dry bogs should become wet again. The state should buy such land or pay farmers. The Fehrmoor bog in Bremerhaven should be protected.

The Greens want to implement and tighten the environmental rules for new construction known as the "Bremer Standard." Every new building would need a green facade, which the platform says is inexpensive, cools, stores water and offers habitat for insects.

The Greens want stricter rules for new buildings. Every new building should have plants on its walls. New buildings should cope better with heavy rain. New neighborhoods should have enough green space for everyone.

The Greens want to make Bremen and Bremerhaven a central part of a European hydrogen infrastructure. Plans include electrolysis plants, a pipeline and the conversion of gas networks, for which the party pledges large public investments. Hydrogen is to be used on a large scale only where electrification is not possible.

The Greens want to build plants and pipelines for hydrogen. Hydrogen is a gas that can store energy. The steel plant, ships and planes should use it. The party wants to spend a lot of public money on this. Hydrogen should only help where electricity is not enough.

The Greens want public land in the city of Bremen to go to companies only under strict climate and environmental criteria. Any firm that wants to set up or expand would have to present a plan for becoming climate neutral by 2038 at the latest.

The city of Bremen gives land to businesses. The Greens want strict climate rules for this. Businesses should show how they become climate neutral by 2038. New business buildings should get solar panels.

The Greens want to help wind energy in Bremerhaven recover after, by their account, thousands of jobs were lost there. They rely on federal and EU support and on a structural policy that gives special consideration to wind industry locations.

Bremerhaven had many jobs in wind energy. Many of them were lost. The Greens want the industry to grow there again. Germany and the EU should keep supporting wind energy.

The Greens want to build up expertise in Bremerhaven for repowering and recycling offshore wind turbines. This is meant to let the city benefit from the expected expansion of offshore wind. They reject building a new open harbor basin in the Weser on ecological grounds.

Many wind turbines stand out at sea. Old turbines must later be taken down or replaced. The Greens want Bremerhaven to do this work. That should bring jobs to the city. The Greens do not want a new harbor basin in the Weser.

The Greens want to switch ships, ferries and vehicles in the port from diesel to climate-friendly propulsion. All of Bremen's ferries are to become climate neutral as quickly as possible. Shipbuilding is meant to benefit from retrofitting existing ships and from new propulsion technologies.

Many ships and vehicles in the port run on diesel. The Greens want to change that. They should run on electricity or other clean engines. All ferries in Bremen should become climate neutral. Climate neutral means they no longer harm the climate. This should also bring new orders to shipyards.

The Left wants the state of Bremen to become climate-neutral by 2038. To get there, the goals and recommendations of the state's climate inquiry commission are to be implemented, also to preserve industry and jobs.

Bremen and Bremerhaven should be climate-neutral by 2038. That means they release almost no harmful gases. A commission made proposals for this. The Left wants to carry out these proposals.

The Left wants a climate fund. That is a big pot of money for climate action. The state of Bremen should borrow money for it. The money should also help people with low incomes.

The Left wants to set up a municipal energy company for Bremen's decentralized supply that does not aim for returns. Public companies are to play a central role in the shift to climate neutrality because, in the program's view, private firms cannot be bound to political goals.

The Left wants a new energy company. It should belong to the city. It should run soundly but not make profits for owners. Public companies should play a big role in climate action.

The Left wants the state to support the conversion of Bremen's steelworks to climate-neutral production using green hydrogen. According to the program, the steelworks causes about half of the state's CO₂ emissions. Bremen and Bremerhaven are also to be developed as a hydrogen region.

The steelworks in Bremen emits a lot of CO₂. The Left wants to convert it. It should run on green hydrogen. The state should provide money for this.

The Left wants solar panels on all technically suitable roofs and facades and a solar mandate for municipal housing companies. For wind power, new priority areas are to be designated and old turbines replaced with stronger ones. Bremen should take direct stakes in offshore wind farms.

The Left wants much more power from sun and wind. City-owned housing companies should have to build solar panels. Old wind turbines should be replaced by stronger ones. Bremen should take part in wind farms at sea.

The Left wants a state heating law and a state heating plan. The annual renovation rate is to rise from 1.35 to 3.2 percent, and passive houses are to become the standard for new buildings. The program argues that nearly a third of CO₂ emissions come from buildings.

Buildings cause a lot of CO₂. The Left wants a law for climate-friendly heating. Many more houses should be renovated each year. New houses should need very little energy.

The Left wants uniform action plans for climate resilience in Bremen and Bremerhaven, to be implemented in the next legislative term. Dikes are to be raised faster, surfaces unsealed and cool places created. Social conditions are to be a focus because, according to the program, heat and heavy rain hit densely built, unrenovated districts hardest.

The climate is already changing. There is more heat and more heavy rain. The Left wants to prepare the cities for this. It wants higher dikes, more green space and cool places. Poorer districts should get special attention.

The Left wants to involve the public early in the shift to climate neutrality through a campaign and participation formats. All districts are to have repair cafés and material exchanges permanently funded by the city. The party also wants more places where people do not have to spend money.

Climate action brings a lot of construction work. The Left wants to inform people early and let them have a say. Every district should have repair cafés. People fix broken things together there. The city should pay for this.

The Left wants to implement Bremen's hydrogen strategy and the projects of the climate pact and to fully fund the subsidized hydrogen projects. To produce green hydrogen, offshore wind power is to be expanded massively, including jointly with other northern German states.

The Left wants to use hydrogen as energy. This should make the steel plant climate neutral. That needs a lot of green electricity. So more wind turbines should stand at sea. Bremen should work with other northern states on this.

The Left wants to advance energy-efficient building renovation through funding programs. New buildings are always to have photovoltaics on the roof, and renewable energy is to be factored into commercial investments.

The Left wants buildings to use less energy. There will be funding for this. New buildings should always have solar panels on the roof. Companies should also plan for green energy in new buildings.

The Left wants universities to develop binding sustainability strategies, fit their roofs with solar panels and undergo energy renovation. University construction is to be a budget priority and financed through special programs.

The Left wants universities to protect the climate. All roofs should get solar panels. Old buildings should be renovated. Special programs should provide the money for this.

The Left opposes handling climate investments through public-private partnerships. Instead, a municipal planning company working across departments is to plan and carry out the projects.

Bremen wants to spend a lot of money on climate protection. The Left wants the city to plan these projects itself. A city-owned planning company should do this. Private firms should not profit at the city's expense.

The Left wants to bring the district heating networks back under municipal ownership and found a new city-owned energy utility. The platform sees district heating as central to the energy transition and says it requires major network expansion.

District heating brings heat to homes through pipes. The Left wants the city to own these pipes again. Bremen should also start its own energy company. This should speed up the energy transition.

The SPD wants Bremen to become climate neutral by 2038 and to invest in transforming the economy to get there. Money is to go into green steel, climate-friendly aviation, and the hydrogen economy. The program argues that the economic transformation can only succeed with substantial investment.

The SPD wants Bremen to be climate neutral by 2038. Climate neutral means the state no longer harms the climate. The SPD wants to spend a lot of money on this. The money is for clean steel, hydrogen, and the ports.

The SPD wants Bremen's economy to run entirely on renewable energy, including green hydrogen, by 2039. Fossil gas, oil and coal are to be replaced in industry. The program presents this shift as a precondition for a sustainable future rather than a burden.

The SPD wants to move away from gas, oil and coal. By 2039 the economy should use only clean energy. That includes green hydrogen. This is a gas made with clean electricity. The SPD says this change secures the future.

The SPD wants to expand green hydrogen production in Bremen and connect the state to the northern German pipeline network. Bremerhaven is to become a test and competence region for mobile hydrogen applications. The party will look into funding innovative pilot plants.

The SPD wants to make more green hydrogen in Bremen. This is a gas made with clean electricity. Bremen should be linked to hydrogen pipelines in the north. In Bremerhaven, companies and researchers should test new technology. The SPD will check whether the state funds test plants.

The SPD wants to generate more wind and solar power in the state of Bremen, using land in business parks, the ports and at the airport. The expansion of offshore wind is meant to create jobs in Bremerhaven. The reason given is sharply rising demand for green electricity and hydrogen.

The SPD wants more electricity from wind and sun. New wind turbines should be built. Old turbines should be replaced with stronger ones. Solar panels should go in ports, business parks and at the airport. In Bremerhaven, wind power at sea should bring new jobs.

The SPD wants commercial areas to be built more densely and designed to be ecological and climate-neutral. Solar panels or green roofs are to become standard, and wind turbines should also stand in commercial areas. Bremen's distance and noise rules for wind power are to be revised.

Commercial areas should be built more densely. Roofs should have solar panels or plants. Wind turbines should stand there too. The SPD wants to change the rules on distance and noise.

The SPD wants to develop the ports so that hydrogen can be imported and transported onward there. In Bremerhaven, commercial land south of the fishing port, including the carbon-neutral LuneDelta area, is meant to attract green-economy companies. As much value creation as possible from the renewable energy build-out should stay in the area.

The SPD wants to get the ports ready for hydrogen. Hydrogen is a gas that provides energy. It should come into the country through the ports. Green companies should settle in Bremerhaven.

The SPD wants to further expand shore-side electricity for ships so that far fewer emissions arise at the berths. It pursues the goal of carbon-neutral port operations and shipping without fossil fuels.

Ships in the port should get electricity from land. Then their engines do not have to run. That means less exhaust. The port should no longer harm the climate.

The SPD wants to expand research on sustainability and climate change in Bremen and strengthen cooperation among institutions. At the same time, university buildings are to be renovated to cut greenhouse gases and save energy.

The SPD wants more research on climate and sustainability. Universities and institutes should work together more. University buildings should be renovated. Then they use less energy. The campus areas should also get more plants.

The SPD wants to advance energy retrofits of existing buildings and make heat pumps, solar panels and insulation easier. Buildings in the worst energy condition are to get additional funding where needed.

Many old houses use too much energy. The SPD wants to fund fixing them. The worst houses come first. In return, landlords may not raise the rent. Older homeowners get special loans.

The SPD wants to require solar panels on new buildings and support this with loans. Municipal heat plans for every neighborhood in Bremen and Bremerhaven are to set the timeline for switching to renewable heating.

New buildings should have to get solar panels. There will be cheap loans for this. The cities should plan how to heat without oil and gas. More buildings should get district heating. Renters should find it easier to use power from their own roof.

The SPD wants to advance timber construction with more pilot projects and make ecological building simpler and cheaper. Public builders are to lead by example.

The SPD wants more buildings made of wood. Wood grows back and stores CO2. There should be new showcase projects for this. When the city builds, it should look after the environment. The federal government should also give more money for energy-saving building.

The SPD wants to meet the CO2 reduction targets set by Bremen's Klima-Enquete (climate inquiry commission) and take the necessary steps quickly in the next legislative term. The burdens are to be shared fairly, and money and staff are to go where they cut the most CO2.

A commission set climate goals for Bremen. The SPD wants to reach these goals. People with more money should carry more of the cost. Money should go where it cuts the most CO2.

The SPD wants to cut the energy demand of residential and commercial buildings and switch them to renewable energy. To do so, heat planning for Bremen and Bremerhaven is to be pushed forward and energy retrofits sped up.

Buildings should use less energy. The SPD wants more heating networks and heat pumps. Old buildings should be renovated faster. Owners should get help paying for this.

The SPD wants to renovate schools, daycare centers and other public buildings so that their energy use becomes CO2-free. Because regular budgets are not enough, separate financing schemes compatible with the debt brake are to be developed.

Bremen owns many schools and daycare centers. These buildings should no longer cause CO2. That costs billions. The normal budget is not enough. So the SPD wants to find new ways to pay for it.
