Political positions

Environment and climate policy

In November 2015 and 2017 he took part in the world climate conference in Paris and Bonn for the SPD parliamentary group.

Energy policy

Klaus Mindrup advocates the expansion of renewable energies in Germany. In a common name article with Johann Saathoff , he described renewable energies as "key technologies of the future" with "huge growth potential that would stabilize Germany economically in the long term and secure jobs in the long term".

In 2015 Mindrup was the only SPD member to vote against funding for the British Hinkley Point nuclear power plant .

Tenant flow

Mindrup co-initiator was the tenant current -Novelle. In his speech on the law, Mindrup spoke out in favor of the decentralized organization of the energy transition : "It makes sense to generate and use electricity on site [...]. In the end, this will also mean that the costs of the energy transition will be lower in economic terms are."

housing

In 2010 Mindrup opposed the plans of the red-red Berlin Senate to privatize the city's "Berliner Immobilien Holding". At that time, it managed almost 40,000 apartments and over 3,000 commercial premises. He criticized the Senate's plans as uneconomical: "In the long term, we are missing out on billions in income". In 2016, the Berlinovo GmbH, which emerged from BIH, generated a profit of over 370 million euros. In a joint name article with Michael Groß , Mindrup spoke out in favor of social housing construction again having to be seen as a duty.

Modernization levy and energetic renovation

Mindrup is committed to regulating the modernization levy for energy-efficient renovation. The existing regulation is used by some real estate companies to "de-rent" their properties in order to sell them as condominiums at a higher profit. In 2017, he described this practice by a real estate company as a "perverse business model".

Property policy

In 2007 Mindrup opposed the plans to build a shopping center on the site of the former Bötzow brewery in Prenzlauer Berg . Instead, the cooperative industrial estate Saarbrückerstraße eG was founded at this point. He took over the site in 2003. The commercial park is an example of successful commercial development throughout Germany. Mindrup advocates a changed property policy that is not exclusively organized according to the highest bidder procedure. That is why he was a critic of the Federal Agency for Real Estate Tasks (BImA) in the past.

Free trade: CETA and TTIP

In the debate about the free trade agreements TTIP and CETA , Klaus Mindrup expressed himself critically, especially against the arbitration proceedings. He advocated adopting the free trade agreement only taking into account the legal, ecological and social rules applicable in Germany. In the spring of 2016, he spoke out in favor of ending the negotiations on the TTIP free trade agreement after no progress had been made in the negotiations for months due to differing positions on the precautionary and aftercare principle.
