The potential study enables the real estate industry to meet the new legal regulations and challenges with far less capital investment
"The potential study that we offer the real estate industry today is the "due diligence with which I have acquired hundreds of apartments and properties in the past" Christoph F. Trautsch
"For me it was always important to purchase a service without having to commit myself to the supplier" Christoph F. Trautsch
The services and results of the potential study are designed in such a way that our customers can freely decide whether they want to continue on the path with us or without us.
The services and costs of our potential study fully comply with the requirements to be eligible for funding. Depending on the subsidy program as a grant or low-interest subsidy loan.
"Due to the many years of experience that I have gained from setting up my local heating networks for my real estate portfolio, I recommend the following minimum sizes, which usually enable economic operation" Christoph F. Trautsch
From approx. 30 units or approx. 2,000m² net living space up to approx. 1,000 units or approx. 65,000m²
In the case of existing properties, an open space around the building is absolutely necessary.
The residential or Usable areas must form a spatial unit and can be distributed across different buildings. Buildings that are separated by a street are not a problem.
From approx. 3,000m² net usable area up to approx. 100,000m²
In the case of new construction projects, open spaces around the planned buildings are not required.
Before we offer a customer an offer from our potential study, we first check the location. Only then can a potential study be commissioned.
We check at the property location whether near-surface geothermal energy is possible and whether there are sufficient so-called withdrawal forces to supply the property with sufficient energy.
Apply for your free "Quick-Check"
We offer you a preliminary check free of charge.
residential real estate
non-residential building
The number of floors should not exceed 5, but no is an exclusion criterion.
You will receive a personal answer from us within 4 weeks and, depending on the result of the "quick check", also an offer for a potential study.
Of course, we are also available to you in advance by phone if you have any questions.
Explanations of the scope of your potential study
In principle, the potential study offers all interested real estate owners, builders, developers and project developers and investors the opportunity to find out whether an almost climate-neutral conversion using near-surface geothermal energy can be considered at all due to the geological conditions and the existing or planned property and what economic advantages result from this. Overall, the study comprises six areas and thus covers all relevant fields.
Based on the original assessment of the location with regard to the use of geothermal energy, a further analysis of the expected thermophysical underground parameters would follow if the result was positive. In addition to the assessment of risk potential and the determination of withdrawal forces for heating, hot water and passive cooling, a comprehensive cost estimate is carried out in this more comprehensive first module.
In the second and third area, the economic conditions, i.e. the expected rental income or sales prices, taking into account property-specific data with and without consideration of the local heating supply, are examined in detail.
The fourth module analyzes the economic benefit of the local heating supply and underpins this with different simulation models, which serves as a basis for decision-making for the planned local heating supply.
Since an almost confusing number of funding options have now been created as part of the energy transition promoted by the legislature, the right selection and composition of the individual funding modules to form an overall concept is becoming increasingly important for property owners. Here we use the expertise of a nationwide known andrenowned Kooperationspartners, which puts together the optimal mix from the regional, national and European funding options.
For the final legal consideration, which plays an important role in the overall study, we work together with an internationally renowned law firm, which prepares an individual expert opinion as part of the study.
Finally, the results are presented in a comprehensive presentation with numerous graphics.
Advantages in real estate transactions
The result of a comprehensive DGC potential study enables the seller and buyer to provide the seller and buyer with essential economic factors in real estate transactions, which are of great importance when determining the purchase price.
Due to the possible implementation of a DGC local heating network, depending on the nature of the property, the energy renovation measures normally required by law can be partially or completely omitted. This leads to a significant reduction in the capital commitment
With the result of the DGC potential study, the purchaser has a new evaluation basis at his disposal.
The new valuation basis enables the seller to better assert his purchase price idea, since price-reducing arguments on the part of the potential buyer become less important.
