1. BImSchV<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In the\nsecond expert discussion, on 12 September 2019 in Berlin, regarding the\nevaluation of the 1. BImSchV, the preliminary final report of the DBFZ (Deutsches\nBiomasse Forschungszentrum) was presented and discussed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Christian\nDroll actively participated in the discussion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The\namendment of the 1. BImSchV 2010 revised the regulations for solid fuel appliances\nand was complemented with new requirements. On one hand, the emission limits for\nnew appliances were significantly tightened and, on the other hand, for the\nfirst time, new limits were established for existing appliances in the retail\nsector \u2013 with transitional periods \u2013 connected with retrofitting or shut down responsibilities.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eight years\nlater, the question now arises as to whether the amendment to the 1. BImSchV\nactually achieves the hoped-for and also assumed in individual studies on\nfuture emission trends and whether there is still room for improvement if\nnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The final\nreport should answer this question and provide a basis for discussion for a\nrenewed amendment of the 1. BImSchV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In further expert\nrounds we will accompany the revision of the amendment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Blauer Engel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since the\nbeginning of the expert discussions on the environmental label \u201cBlauer Engel\u201d,\nthe RRF participated in the relevant meetings.
