Kusel is investing 7 million euros in the future of schools!

The district of Kusel recently received funding of over seven million euros. This considerable sum is intended for the energetic renovation of two schools. The Veldenz-Gymnasium in Lauterecken and the integrated comprehensive school (IGS) in Schönenberg-Kübelberg are affected. This investment will primarily increase the energy efficiency of the two educational institutions.

of the total of more than seven million euros comes around 3.6 million euros from the European Fund for Regional Development (ERDRE). The remaining funds are provided by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The district administrator of the district, Otto Rudbly, emphasizes the success of the district administration in the acquisition of these funding. It was an outstanding performance that was held by everyone involved.

distribution of funding and sanitary measures

When it comes to the exact distribution of the funds, four million euros are planned for the IGS Schönenberg-Kübelberg/Waldmohr. The district receives 3.5 million euros for the Veldenz-Gymnasium in Lauterecken. This funding rate of 90 percent underlines the high support that the measures for better energy efficiency in municipal buildings receive. The planned renovation work includes the complete renovation of the building envelope of both schools. These include insulation measures on outer walls, flat roofs and basement ceilings, as well as the exchange of windows and outer doors.

In addition, a summer thermal insulation is installed, which further increases energy efficiency. In Lauterecken, the final energy requirement is expected to be reduced by 86 percent, while it can even be reduced by 91 percent in Schönenberg-Kübelberg. These impressive savings show how environmental consumption can be minimized through targeted measures.

handing over the funding notices

The funding notices were handed over by the Rhineland-Palatinate Minister of Climate Protection Katrin Eder to the first district deputy Johannes Huber. This represents a significant step in the direction of a more sustainable infrastructure. The district of Kusel acts as a carrier of both schools and thus actively contributes to improving the educational infrastructure.

In addition to these funded projects, the district administration emphasizes further successful funding acquisitions. Projects such as Smart City, Structural Pilots and Culture Invest to renovate the Fritz-Wunderlich-Halle not only ensure the future of educational institutions, but also the development of the entire municipalities in the district.

The upcoming work in schools are in line with the nationwide initiative to promote efficient buildings. With the ongoing reform of the federal funding for efficient buildings (BEG), renovations are supported that contribute to saving energy costs and climate protection, which also underlines the important measures in Kusel.

The initiatives that support the district of Kusel are part of a comprehensive approach to improve energy efficiency and to promote sustainable building practices throughout Germany. These measures are an important step into a more environmentally friendly future. Investments in energetic renovation will not only relieve the climate, but also significantly improve the living room and learning space for students.
