Changelog

Changes to EMBER's data. Entries marked as automatic write themselves when the fingerprint of a source file changes: a source that moves without leaving a trace is a source that cannot be trusted.

  1. Source added

    Re-read the sources the surveillance had flagged since 7 September: none changed in content. Web pages changed their bytes at every request, and the two Ecodesign regulations looked changed because of an empty server response. Twenty-five sources reconfirmed on 16 September; added the list of acts amending the two regulations.

    4 sources affected
    • European Union — Publications Office — CELLAR — acts amending, repealing, correcting or consolidating Regulations (EU) 2015/1185 and 2015/1189
    • European Union — European Commission — Regulation (EU) 2015/1185 — ecodesign requirements for solid fuel local space heaters

    • Austria — Land of Lower Austria (Niederösterreich), Amt der NÖ Landesregierung — „Sauber Heizen für Alle“ 2026 — page of the Land of Niederösterreich

  2. Source updated

    Austria — Land Lower Austria (Niederösterreich), Amt der NÖ Landesregierung - „Sauber Heizen für Alle“ 2026 — page of the Land Niederösterreich: the source file has changed. The data derived from this source have been regenerated.

  3. Data model

    Germany: extracted from the 1. BImSchV the limits for new appliances — the ten single-room appliance types of Anlage 4 and the boilers of 4 kW or more of § 5 — read column by column from the conserved copy. The page claimed an absence in the act on what may be installed: it was a table not yet extracted. Empty items now say that the rules have not been extracted, not that the act is silent.

    Sources affected: Germany — Bundesministerium der Justiz — 1. BImSchV — Erste Verordnung zur Durchführung des Bundes-Immissionsschutzgesetzes, on small and medium combustion installations

    Origin of the entry: manual

  4. Data model

    The comparison between markets: the five countries side by side on what the data supports — the status of the incentive schemes, the dates written into the acts, climate and energy prices. What does not line up — emission limits, amounts, household consumption — sits outside the columns, with the reason it does not belong there.

    Origin of the entry: manual

  5. Source added

    Acquired the GSE catalogue of biomass appliances, from which the home page counts models by fuel. The copy matches the one read on 2 September 2026, which had not entered the list of sources: until today the count could not be redone from the source.

    Sources affected: GSE — Gestore dei servizi energetici — III.C — Catalogo generatori a biomassa

    Origin of the entry: manual

  6. Source added

    France: the air title of the Code de l'environnement and the consolidated versions of the decree on MaPrimeRénov' eligible expenses read through the API. On the country page: no national emission limit in that title, and stoves and biomass boilers leaving the list of expenses.

  13. Data model
