Our pals live in a village in Bavaria where lots of the houses are heated by a municipal wood-burning energy generator: https://www.naturwaerme-reit-im-winkl.de/
All that fun chat reminds me that a guy once told me that his fire hot water tank worked best with chipboard. Wonder if those still exist in Berlin.
My old place at least had electric hot water, but coal ovens as the only economic heater.
It's pretty rare nowadays, but we still have people heating their homes with coal here.
