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 restriction

For enhanced and highest support, when the applicant or spouse conducts an activity included in the programme definition, annual revenue from each such activity in the calendar year used for the municipal income certificate is limited separately: at enhanced level to 40 times, and at highest level to 12 times, the minimum wage in force in December before the application year. Highest-level test is not applied when the specified qualifying-benefit certificate is submitted. Spouse activity is assessed only if there is no final legal separation at application. The basic-level PLN 135,000 annual ceiling and income-source rules are stated separately.

Applicant restriction

A beneficiary cannot receive another basic, enhanced or highest-level grant for a different dwelling where the specified agreement was based on an application submitted on or after 22 April 2024.

Applicant type

This provider call is run by the provincial environmental fund (WFOŚiGW) for the region of the building; the public programme’s downstream grant beneficiary is an individual person who owns/co-owns an eligible single-family home or separately titled premises. Do not read the NFO record as a household application submitted to NFOŚiGW.

Application restriction

NFOŚiGW lists this as continuous route 19/NC/OA/2.2/2026/CP for 31 March 2025 through 30 June 2030, marked as administered by WFOŚiGW. The current underlying July 20 2026 programme docs govern eligible terms; the snapshot status is a source status as of 22 October, not a live system check.

Eligible project scope

The financed subject is heat-source replacement and energy-efficiency improvement in existing single-family residential buildings or separately titled dwellings in such buildings. Programme §9.2.2 requires an existing/commissioned building or dwelling; costs incurred before it is put into use are excluded.

Other condition

At highest support level, the building’s pre-project usable energy demand for heating must exceed 140 kWh/(m²·year). The programme defines type 2 projects for 80–140 kWh/(m²·year) with at least 40% reduction and a post-project ceiling of 80; type 3 begins above 140 and requires at least 40% reduction and a post-project ceiling of 140.

Other condition

The reviewed July 20 2026 programme, current cost annex and grant regulations specify household benefit eligibility, eligible renovation goods/works/services, and reimbursement conditions; they do not establish employee headcount, hiring obligations, salary amounts, or a payroll wage rate. The applicant is a natural-person household beneficiary; contractor work is not a beneficiary payroll rule.

Other condition

Baseline minimum is 3 years. No minimum tenure applies to acquisition by inheritance or acquisitive prescription; inheritance must be evidenced by a final court ruling or registered certificate of succession unless ownership appears in the land register. The period is reduced to 1 year for purchase of at least 50% of the property, and for acquisition from an ascendant by life-annuity or gift of at least 50%. In the premises-merger exception, no minimum period applies only if the applicant owned all merged premises for at least 3 years and the whole building met the programme single-family definition before merger. Every other co-owner must consent. For a premises created by subdivision, prior ownership of its parent property does not count toward the dwelling’s 3 years; the separate-title entry date applies.

Other condition

The programme allows a grant, a grant for partial repayment of bank-loan principal, and a grant with pre-financing; pre-financing is available only at enhanced or highest support level and through programme operators.

Ownership duration, minimum

36 months

Baseline only: applicant must own/co-own the qualifying single-family building or separately titled dwelling for at least 3 years before application; for a dwelling formed by subdivision, the 3-year period starts from the separate-title entry, not prior ownership of the parent building. Inheritance and other exceptions, including evidence of inheritance, acquisitive prescription, qualifying 50% transfers, premises merger and co-owner consent, are explicitly set out in the linked ownership-tenure-exceptions fact and cited here.

Eligible cost

Non-exhaustive examples of potentially eligible categories are replacement of a heat source included in Annex 2, central-heating and hot-water installations, a qualifying energy audit, necessary design documentation for the listed work scopes (roof reconstruction for insulation, heating/hot-water systems, heat-source replacement, and heat-recovery ventilation) if the documented work is included in the application and completed by the project end, legally required and necessary tests/expert reports, envelope insulation and window/external-door/garage-gate work, and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Eligibility is governed by the exact project type in Programme §9.2.2 and the line-specific scope, conditions, technical requirements and caps in Annex 2; this summary does not establish every line item as eligible for every project.
