Hello everyone,
I have no idea and need an expert opinion. Our semi-detached house is being built (according to the building description) "(...) according to the criteria of the current Energy Saving Ordinance 2014 with the stricter requirements as of January 1, 2016."
Is this a KfW standard, and if so, which one?
Thank you very much for your help.

Oh, right... yes. I was confused because it was still subsidized here but this is a sign that the Energy Saving Ordinance standard is not worthless in terms of energy efficiency.
We did not receive any special conditions from Commerzbank.

As of today, there is no longer any "KfW 70" house nor any funding program for it.
So, a clear NO.Rather a clear no to your incorrect conclusion. The correct statement is:Today, newly built houses are only constructed to at least KfW 70 standard, and therefore there is no special funding for achieving this standard with a new build.

Where is it stated that the Energy Saving Ordinance must mean at least 70? Can't a new build also meet KfW 75 or 80 standards? No. That is why it is called the "minimum standard."
Current building regulations for energy-efficient construction require certain measures to be implemented in new buildings. These requirements correspond to what was previously known as the KfW 70 standard. The latest Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV) has established this former KfW standard as the minimum construction requirement. Therefore, every newly built house must meet the criteria that were previously defined by KfW 70. This standard was discontinued following changes to the regulations.
KfW Energy-Efficient House 70 – Funding Discontinued
Techniques that were considered particularly innovative a few years ago have now become standard practice in construction. New buildings without special additional features already meet the values required for a KfW Energy-Efficient House 70. Efficient and low-consumption heating systems, comprehensive thermal insulation, and double- or triple-glazed windows significantly reduce energy consumption. For this reason, KfW discontinued funding for the Energy-Efficient House 70 as of April 1, 2016. In the current "Building and Living" funding program, builders who wish to receive grants or subsidized loans must plan at least to the KfW Energy-Efficient House 55 standard or higher.

Therefore, formerly KfW 70 now equals Energy Saving Regulations.
Your house must not be built to any lower standard.
