Additional funds for subsidies from the Clean Air program have been unlocked
In addition to the current transfers from KPO and the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management, which totaled over PLN 1 billion (PLN 1,096,900,004), work is still ongoing on the payment of further money from KPO. Moreover, in April this year PLN 6.4 billion of European funds will go to the program budget.
We asked the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management whether the Clean Air program is still being implemented.
Yes, the program is being implemented and anyone interested can still apply for a subsidy for replacing the stove and thermal modernization of their house – respond experts from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management.
However, many house owners complain that they have not yet received approved subsidies for replacing furnaces, thermal modernization and purchasing energy-saving heating installations. Will the outstanding funds be paid?
Yes, although there may be delays in payments, each subsidy will be paid – emphasize NFOŚiGW experts.
If the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management currently does not have money for subsidies, can I contact the Ministry of Climate or the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management for my payments?
No, because the Ministry of Climate and Environment supervises the program, while the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management implements it through the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management in individual voivodeships. Only provincial funds that receive funds from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management are responsible for the payment of subsidies, say experts from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management.
When will funding for the Clean Air program be fully restored?
In January this year KPO funds were unblocked (payments resumed). Since the beginning of 2024, PLN 700 million has been paid to WFOŚigw accounts. In addition, the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management has committed a significant amount of its own funds (approx. PLN 397 million), which are now going to the beneficiaries, which allows for the payment of outstanding payments.
So how can I find out whether the National Fund for Environmental Protection has received another tranche of money for subsidy payments?
We keep you informed about this, among others: on the website of the “Clean Air” program: biznespopowiedze.gov.pl (home page – important announcements) – say experts from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management.
