How the demand for a climate bonus affects consumers - A financial expert analyzes the current developments.
According to a report by www.new-facts.eu, the Federal Association of Consumer Organizations (VBZB) has demanded that every citizen receive a climate refund of 139 euros. The VBZB argues that the government's revenue from the CO2 price was more than twice as high as the direct relief and a total of 11.4 billion euros were collected. They demand that this income should now be returned to consumers. However, the government views the VBZB's demand critically.

How the demand for a climate bonus affects consumers - A financial expert analyzes the current developments.
According to a report by www.new-facts.eu, the Federal Association of Consumer Organizations (VBZB) has demanded that every citizen receive a climate refund of 139 euros. The VBZB argues that the government's revenue from the CO2 price was more than twice as high as the direct relief and a total of 11.4 billion euros were collected. They demand that this income should now be returned to consumers.
However, the government views the VBZB's demand critically. The Ministry of Economic Affairs explains that the additional income from the CO2 price has already flowed into the climate and transformation fund and has therefore also reached the citizens, for example through funding programs for building renovations, heating replacement, energy advice or e-car funding. In addition, the CO2 price was not increased this year as planned in order to relieve the burden on people. A direct payment of a climate bonus is not planned in the near future, as statements from Finance Minister Christian Lindner (FDP) and Economics Minister Robert Habeck (Greens) made clear.
The introduction of climate money is therefore still pending, as the government parties could address the issue after the next federal election. The discussion about climate reimbursement will therefore continue in the future.
A direct impact of this requirement on the market or consumers is currently not foreseeable, as the government does not plan to implement it in the near future. However, if climate money of 139 euros per person were to be implemented, this could potentially lead to additional financial relief for consumers and increase demand for climate-friendly products and services. This could lead to an upswing in the market for environmentally friendly technologies and services. However, it remains to be seen whether and when such a measure will actually be implemented.
