This chapter offers a critical assessment of the partial warm rent model and public law levies. It delves into the instruments for mobilising private investment, particularly focusing on municipal green bonds in Germany. This chapter examines the current status quo, legal barriers at different levels (European, federal, and Länder), and potential solutions within the existing legal framework. It summarises the findings from both German and Swedish perspectives, emphasising the replicability and practicality of various solutions in the context of energy modernisation for low-income tenants. The chapter also provides two possibilities to issue green bonds for financing of rented housing occupied by low-income households within the existing German legal order.
