Der Roundtable Wärmewende hat sich zusammengefunden, um die wesentlichen Pfeiler des Gelingens der Wärmewende aufzuzeigen. Ziel der Interessenvertretung ist die Erläuterung von Änderungsnotwe­ndigkeiten hinsichtlich der Erreichung der vollständigen Dekarbonisierung der Wärmeversorgung bis 2045, der koordinierten und effizienten Zusammenarbeit aller relevanten Akteure, der Ausarbeitung einer klaren sektorübergriefenden Dekarbonisieru­ngstrategie, der Durchführung von finanziell für alle Bevölkerungsschichten und den Staat tragbaren Maßnahmen, der Fokus auf sektorübergreifende Lösungen der Wärmewende, die Umsetzung der goldenen Regel der Wärmewende: „Wärmenetze wo möglich, Einzelhauslösungen wo nötig“ sowie der Nutzung von neuen, innovativen Förderinstrumenten. Die Interessenvertretung erfolgt dabei hauptsächlich durch die Distribution und Vorstellung von Informationsmaterialen (Bspw.

Roundtable Wärmewende is a registered nonprofit in Germany. Donations to recognized charitable organizations (gemeinnuetzige Organisationen) are tax-deductible up to 20% of your total income. You will need a donation receipt (Zuwendungsbestaetigung) from the organization for your tax return.

You can verify Roundtable Wärmewende's charitable status in several ways. First, check the Zuwendungsempfaengerregister (ZER) at https://www.bzst.de/DE/Unternehmen/Zuwendungsempfaengerregister_organisation/zuwendungsempfaengerregister_organisation_node.html - the BZSt maintains this federal register of all organisations eligible to receive tax-deductible donations in Germany. Second, you can look up the association in the Vereinsregister (association register) at the local Amtsgericht (district court) via https://www.handelsregister.de/ - this confirms the legal form, registered address, and board members. Third, check whether the organisation holds the Freistellungsbescheid (tax-exemption notice) from its local Finanzamt - the notice is re-issued every three years and confirms the 'gemeinnuetzig' status under the Abgabenordnung. Legitimate charities publish this on their website or provide it on request.

Contact Roundtable Wärmewende directly for current donation methods. German charities typically accept SEPA bank transfer (Ueberweisung) to the organisation's IBAN, SEPA direct debit (Lastschrift/Einzugsermaechtigung) for recurring donations, PayPal, credit card payments, and online payment processors like Stripe or Mollie. Many German charities use platforms like betterplace.org, GoFundMe, or their own Spendenseite (donation page). International donors can give via SEPA transfer (Germany is in the eurozone) or PayPal. For your donation to be tax-deductible, you need a Zuwendungsbestaetigung (donation receipt) from the organisation - for amounts up to 300 euros, a bank statement showing the transfer is sufficient.

Roundtable Wärmewende is based in Berlin, in Berlin, Germany's capital and largest city. Germany is a federation of 16 states (Bundeslaender). Charitable status ('Gemeinnuetzigkeit') is granted by the local Finanzamt and recognised nationwide - the organisation can solicit tax-deductible donations from donors anywhere in Germany.
