The municipal investment scheme amounting to 10 billion Euros which the German Federal Government decided in the framework of the second economic stimulus package in the crisis winter 2008/2009, shows effects, among others in the education infrastructure. A lot of cities and municipalities have modernized nursery schools, schools and universities with the 6.5 billion Euros granted for this sector. Also smaller municipalities have benefitted from the scheme, such as the city of Rheinbach in North Rhine-Westphalia (27,000 inhabitants) which has invested 1.9 million from about 3.5 million Euros in energetic refurbishment. Besides roofs, façades and heating installations, the modernization of windows plays a prominent role.
