Financing of eco-installations
Current grants:
The My Current 6.0 programme is aimed at individuals producing electricity for their own use who have a comprehensive contract for the sale and feed-in of the energy produced by the micro-installation into the grid. Financial support is granted in the form of a grant, covering up to 50% of the eligible investment costs.The grant covers the installation of a photovoltaic micro-installation or its assembly together with an electricity or thermal energy storage.
My Current 6.0 is aimed at prosumers who have incurred costs for a photovoltaic installation after 1 January 2021. The prerequisite for the subsidy is net-billing. Micro-installations submitted for grid connection from 1 August 2024 will be required to include electricity or heat storage. The capacity of the installation can range from 2 kW to 20 kW.
As far as the funding amounts are concerned, they are as follows:
Heat storage - PLN 5,000.
Photovoltaic micro-installation - PLN 6,000 (only for installations connected by 31 July 2024).
Photovoltaic micro-installation with ancillary equipment - PLN 7,000 + funding for an additional device.
Funding for an additional device:
Energy storage - PLN 16,000.

The essence of the programme is to improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by replacing heat sources and improving the energy efficiency of single-family residential buildings.
The tool to achieve the objective is to subsidise projects implemented by beneficiaries eligible for the basic subsidy level, beneficiaries eligible for the increased subsidy level and beneficiaries eligible for the highest subsidy level.
The beneficiaries were divided into three groups:
basic level - Up to 40% funding, income threshold: £135,000/year
elevated levels - To 70% funding, income threshold:

PLN 1,300/person in a multi-person household
PLN 1,800 in a one-person household
or receiving benefits (permanent, periodic, family, special care)
annual business income - a maximum of twelve times the amount of the minimum wage.
Usable energy demand for heating in a building above 140 kWh/m2/year.
Who can benefit from the programme?
Individuals who are owners or co-owners of a single-family house or a separate dwelling unit therein with a separate land and mortgage register may apply for funding. The minimum period of this ownership must be 3 years prior to the application for funding. This requirement does not apply to inheritance situations.
In addition, they must meet the income criteria set out in the programme and, in the case of the highest grant, also meet the building's energy standard requirements.
Important dates
The programme covers the years 2018-2032. Agreements with beneficiaries will be signed until 31 December 2030. Funds will be disbursed by the WFOŚiGW until 31 December 2032.
What can you get funding for?
You can get a grant for heat source replacement and thermal modernisation, including:
- Replacement of a drafty, inefficient solid fuel heat source with a new efficient and environmentally friendly heat source ,
- Upgrading the heating system,
- Building insulation,
- Replacement of windows and doors,
- Purchase of recuperation, i.e. mechanical ventilation with heat recovery,
- Energy audit,
- Energy performance certificate.
- A catalogue of eligible costs can be found in Annex 2 to the programme.
How do I obtain funding?
- Examine the requirements of the building - the current state and needs of the building, which must be included in the energy audit. These will then be reviewed by a representative of the WFOŚiGW.
- Submit your application - they will be accepted and processed by the the territorially competent Provincial Funds for Environmental Protection and Water Management.
- Sign the funding agreement.
- Apply for payments - can be paid in several tranches.

Agroenergia is a programme aimed at farmers who are interested in green energy production. It includes both subsidies for installations under construction and low-interest loans. The funds can be used, among other things, for the purchase and installation of photovoltaic systems, electricity storage and heat pumps. The aim of the programme is to improve living conditions in the countryside and introduce clean energy into agricultural activities.
To 30.06.2027 r. Farmers can benefit from a programme providing funding for photovoltaic installations, up to PLN 25 000. Natural or legal persons owning or leasing agricultural property between 1 and 300 hectares and having been farming for at least one year can benefit from the funding.
Interested persons may receive a grant of up to 20% costs qualified. For installations of 10-30 kWp, the subsidy amount will be no more than PLN 15 000 and, in the case of larger installations, between 30 and 50, no more than PLN 25,000.
It is also possible to obtain funding for a hybrid installation, i.e. photovoltaics and a heat pump, for example. an allowance of PLN 10,000. Agroenergy 2021 programme subsidises energy storage of no more than 50% of the cost of the generation source.

- Replacement of inefficient heat sources with:
Air-to-water or air-to-air heat pumps.
Gas condensing boilers.

All owners and co-owners of a single-family house can benefit from the thermal modernisation allowance. Even if the house has more than one owner, each owner has a tax deduction of up to £53,000.
The amount of the deduction applies to the taxpayer, not to the property he owns. Therefore, if we own 3 single-family buildings in which we have carried out thermal modernisation, the amount of the deduction will be a total of PLN 53,000, not PLN 53,000 for each building.
When deducting the allowance, it is important to rely on the VAT invoices for the thermo-modernisation expenses. It is important to collect only invoices, from the year to which your tax return relates. Once you have added up the amount from all the invoices, you must include it in your return (deduct it from your income or revenue). You complete the data in in the PIT/O document, in part B., in the field "Expenditure on the realisation of a thermal modernisation project".
What can be deducted with the thermal modernisation allowance?
The condition to benefit from the relief is to spend the funds on projects that reduce energy consumption. Such expenditure includes, among others:
- photovoltaic installation and accessories (also in combination with other programmes or subsidies)
- connection to gas and district heating networks
- installation of electric, gas, oil heating
- photovoltaic panel or solar collector with accessories
- heat pump installation
- replacement of doors and windows (roof, balcony, non-opening), garage doors and their dedicated installation systems
- Insulation and modernisation of the building (including roof), implementation of ventilation, recuperation
- insulation and damp-proofing materials for building partitions, balcony slabs, foundations and for the electric heating system and heating installation
- building energy efficiency audit and design documentation
