In the fall of 2022, the second survey of the German Heating & Housing Panel (GHHP) was conducted among around 15,000 households. The GHH panel combines information on the building stock and final energy demand of private households with data on their socio-economic characteristics in a unique way. A particular focus was on the effects of the energy price crisis caused by Russia's attack on Ukraine on private households. Participants were asked how badly they were affected by rising energy prices and what measures they would take to counteract this. However, only 28% of participants planned to reduce their heating energy consumption significantly or very significantly in the winter of 2022/2023. Another notable result is that only around 21% of respondents stated that they had taken note of the German government's information campaign entitled "80 million together for the energy transition". On the other hand, the overwhelming majority of around 88% of respondents had heard about the gas levy planned for fall 2022, which has not been introduced in the end. Rising prices in the construction industry were cited as the biggest obstacle to energy modernization, while uncertainty about the price development of various energy sources was also of great importance.
