Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Applicant restrictionSource-level qualification for exact route applicant matching; do not broaden the route applicant claim from the programme-wide catalogue.

The current exact route page names supervised research institutes (and their consortia/partnerships). The page-linked programme’s wider §7.4 list also includes ministries, the Chief Inspectorate of Environmental Protection and the General Directorate for Environmental Protection. The page links a separate intake for state-budget-unit heads; do not interpret the wider programme list as proof all categories apply to this specific 8.1/2021 DOTACJA call.

Applicant typeThis records the exact page’s named route-side applicant class. The programme-wide §7.4 catalogue is broader; see the separate scope qualification and unresolved source difference.

The current exact route page identifies research institutes supervised by ministers competent for climate and environment, including their consortia and partnerships.

Application restrictionExact DOTACJA programme; the exact route’s current call page gives the research-institute class, and access details for individual intakes may be further specified in a notice or regulation.

The programme’s access checks require timely filing on the applicable form and in required form, a complete and properly signed submission with all required fields/attachments, an applicant inside the programme’s beneficiary class, compliance with applicable public-law obligations and NFOŚiGW civil-law obligations, a project type and purpose consistent with the programme, a project not completed before application, a conforming implementation/disbursement period, and a form/intensity conforming to the programme. The programme also requires a positive climate/environment ministerial opinion for applications from beneficiaries in §7.4(3), (4) and (5), including research institutes; specific liaison-steward content applies except the energy/water ministries. Public results must be made generally accessible for projects under §7.5(1).

Application restrictionExact call pl_nfosigw:6e9da1e2d2a774b7; identifier 39/NC/NE/8.1/2021/cz.1-DOTACJA; fingerprint deb8aacdc45ee29ab3df84f20cc9df156c36ea50699d265f3a31d219572af831.

The official exact route page says intake is continuous. The exact local record, fetched 22 October 2026, reports the route open with a planned period from 8 May 2019 through 31 December 2027. This is catalogue status, not proof that an application portal currently accepts a filing.

Consortium allowedExact 6.3 route as identified by current page; programme-wide partner conditions apply.

Yes

The route page names consortia and partnerships of the eligible supervised research institutes; programme §7.4(5) ties institute consortia/partnerships to necessity for tasks in §7.5.

Eligible project scopePriority programme §7.5 task list; each item retains its own beneficiary/task constraints.

The programme supports work needed for climate/environmental policy and international obligations. Listed task types include studies, analyses, reports, expert opinions, research and workshops/conferences; international obligations and organisation costs for entities designated by ministers; environmental assessment-system support; energy/environment/climate innovation and technology; education and communication; paid internships for selected technical/agricultural master’s students or graduates in specified ministerial units; and secondment costs for persons designated by ministers to work at Poland’s EU Permanent Representation.

Other conditionCurrent capture only; eligibility terms may change by filing date.

The NFOŚiGW general eligible-cost guide states that the version in force on application date applies to a continuous intake unless the NFOŚiGW Board decides otherwise. The official general-information page currently links a guide whose revision history ends at 29 May 2025; its detailed payroll conditions should therefore be rechecked for the applicant’s filing date.

Other conditionEligible-cost period in the directly linked 8.1 document; later grant agreement and state-aid rules may impose conditions.

Programme costs can be eligible from 1 January 2021 through 31 December 2029, subject to the programme and applicable aid rules.

Other conditionCurrent general guide applies subject to more specific programme terms and the version in force when the continuous-call application is filed.

The current linked general NFOŚiGW guide requires eligible costs to be actually incurred, legal, necessary to achieve the project outputs/effects, within the eligibility period, borne by the beneficiary or an NFOŚiGW-approved authorized cost-bearing entity named in the agreement, and consistent with the agreement. It also prohibits financing the same costs twice.

Other conditionThis exact record is the DOTACJA call; do not combine it with the separate state-budget-unit call linked from the same page.

The programme’s form 7.1(2) is a grant for beneficiaries listed at §7.4(5), including supervised research institutes; its §7.1(1) form transfers funds to the current-account budget-income account of the climate minister for tasks carried out by state budget units. The exact call page also links a separate intake for heads of state budget units.

Other conditionProgramme implementation and expenditure schedule; exact call record separately has its 2019–2027 intake window.

The programme is implemented in 2021–2029; programme commitments (contract signing) are to be undertaken through 31 December 2027, and funds may be expended through 31 December 2029.

Other conditionSubstantive official-source version conflict; neither quoted budget is a call-level award ceiling or current remaining amount.

The exact route page still links the 8.1 programme PDF, which states a total programme budget up to PLN 176 million for non-repayable forms. A separately published, later-modified same-title 6.3 programme PDF states PLN 276 million. The route record retains the 8.1/2021 identifier; no public source captured here connects the later 6.3 file to that exact identifier, so the applicable current pool for this route is unresolved and neither number is treated here as a verified remaining intake balance.

Other conditionProgramme-level selection criteria; exact evaluation depends on current programme version and call rules.

The linked priority programme uses three scored areas: task rationale (maximum 40 points), feasibility (maximum 30) and cost-effectiveness (maximum 30). Each area requires at least 60% of its possible points for a positive area score, and the overall positive-project threshold is 60 points. A zero score on specified scored criteria causes rejection; the ecological-management horizontal criterion may add points but its negative result does not reject the application.

Eligible costDirectly linked priority programme, grant form under §7.1(2).

For the institute grant form, necessary fixed assets, equipment and furnishings and intangible assets/software/patents/licences can qualify if needed for the project; the programme states a condition that use for economic activity under EU competition law must not exceed 20%. Necessary materials, publications and databases, and copyright purchases are additionally included in other costs.

Only costs necessary for and tied to the relevant project tasks; fixed assets/WNiP are subject to the stated ≤20% economic-use ceiling. Programme priority provisions constrain the current general guidelines.

Eligible costCurrent linked NFOŚiGW cost guidelines are incorporated by §6(2) of the priority programme subject to its express exceptions.

The currently linked NFOŚiGW cost guide additionally lists necessary project-preparation documentation and permits, information/promotion required by its marking instructions, management in the necessary justified scope, and project-related external services and consumables, subject to project necessity, the priority programme, the application and the agreement.

These are general eligible categories, not automatic approval of any cost. Each item must satisfy applicable project necessity, eligibility period, beneficiary/authorized-cost-bearer, contract, and programme-specific conditions.

Eligible costExact grant route; general guideline version is application-date dependent.

For grant financing, the directly linked programme identifies employee remuneration and other benefits owed to employees under labour-law provisions as an eligible cost category. The general cost guidelines currently linked by NFOŚiGW allow project employee wages only with project duties explicitly identified in the job description/duties and cost allocated by the share of the employee’s time on project tasks.

The exact programme limits category to employees and labour-law remuneration/benefits for grant financing. Current guide adds explicit task-description and proportional allocation requirements; a continuous-call applicant uses the guide in force on filing unless the NFOŚiGW Board decides otherwise. Do not infer new hiring, a particular job title, headcount, rate or salary.

Eligible cost limitCurrent general NFOŚiGW eligible-cost guidance, incorporated subject to programme exceptions.

7 percent of eligible project costs

General-guide default for management costs; these costs must be described and justified in the application and included in the grant agreement. The programme’s separate indirect-cost ceiling is 30% of eligible employee remuneration and is not the same denominator/category. A programme or agreement can set otherwise; current-guide version is application-date dependent.

Eligible cost limitExact DOTACJA form under the programme.

30 percent of eligible employee remuneration costs

Indirect costs are capped at 30% of eligible employee remuneration costs, only for grant financing. This is a payroll-base ceiling, not 30% of the project budget.

Funding intensity, maximumExact route page and both same-title programme versions state the same ceiling.

100 percent of eligible costs

Maximum grant intensity. This is a ceiling on eligible costs, not a guarantee of full-cost reimbursement and not an award amount.

Ineligible costRelevant to direct employee payroll and management charges under the grant route.

The current linked NFOŚiGW eligible-cost guidance excludes PFRON employer contributions, ZFŚS-funded benefits, public-officer civil-liability insurance for harm in exercising public authority, jubilee awards and employee severance, and discretionary non-statutory fees except where the guide’s three cumulative employment-rule, six-month and equal-coverage tests are satisfied. It also excludes civil-contract pay for project tasks paid under management costs or for a person whose employment duties already cover project implementation.

General-guide staff exclusions, subject to the exact programme terms; the programme and current guide may be updated and the applicable continuous-call guide is determined at filing.

• Other role

  Staff cost the grant can fund

  Exact programme §6(2)(c) makes employee remuneration and labour-law benefits eligible for grant financing. The current general guide requires explicit identification of project duties and proportional allocation based on the employee’s project-task work. The programme/general guide does not establish a particular job, recruitment requirement, headcount, pay amount or rate. The guide version for a continuous intake is the one in force when the application is filed unless the Board decides otherwise.

• Other role

  Staff cost the grant can fund

  The programme lists financing secondment costs as a supported task. It does not specify individual compensation, amount, duration, number of secondees, or hiring terms; these remain unknown.

• Student

  Staff cost the grant can fund

  The programme lists support for professional development through funding paid internships at units supervised by the competent ministries or within the ministry. It does not set participant pay, number of participants, internship duration, contract form, or recruitment procedure in this programme document. Those remain unknown.
