My neighbourhood goes gas-free and costs are unaffordable — my rights?

Wcw 2025 requires affordability test + financing. Input via municipal execution plan. Objection at court possible.

On forced transition to heat-network or all-electric you have rights under Wcw 2025 + Awb: (1) municipality must test affordability per household before adopting the neighbourhood plan; (2) financing arrangement must be offered (Warmtefonds, municipal loan); (3) consultation evening + view submission; (4) objection to the plan within 6 weeks of adoption at administrative court; (5) right to compensation for home value loss or lost usage rights. For district heating: tariff bound to ACM cap (NMDA). Practically: attend the municipal consultation, submit a view with concrete numbers (loan interest, annual extra costs), join any resident association — collective negotiation yields more than individual.
