Machine-classified from the call text; check eligibility at the source. 23 Oct 2026

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 type

Only the 16 named regional WFOŚiGW are eligible applicants for this call. They implement grant projects; the call does not allow households to submit direct NFOŚiGW applications through this route.

Application restriction

Official notice sets the exact FENX.02.04-IW.01-004/26 window from 19 October 2026 to 30 October 2026 at 15:30. Applications must be electronic in WOD2021 and have status “Przesłany” by the cutoff; local snapshot shows open as fetched 22 October 2026, while live acceptance was not rechecked.

Application restriction

The exact criteria require plausible implementation structure, management methods, staffing resources and budgeted expenditures that are justified, rational, adequate to the project’s scope/objectives and market conditions. The scoring rubric is zero-one, and failure eliminates the project.

Application restriction

The applicant’s project must satisfy horizontal and specific obligatory criteria, including eligible project goal/type, cost period and programme eligibility rules, co-financing form/intensity, eligible grant recipient types, min 2 m³ water storage/retention, minimum/maximum eligible scope, no double financing and market-price conformity. The grant-project description must explain grant-recipient selection criteria and implementation method.

Eligible project scope

Eligible equipment/installations include storage in sealed underground or above-ground tanks, soil retention (e.g. permeability restoration, infiltration wells, drainage, infiltration crates, open basins), and use of retained water (e.g. pumps, filters, pipes, sprinklers, controllers, water distribution hubs). Storage capacity must total at least 2 m³. Green roofs are excluded.

Eligible project scope

The grant project supports individual rainwater/snowmelt micro-retention on eligible property. Installations may collect runoff from impermeable surfaces including roofs, paths and driveways, using interceptors, inlets, gutter settlers, linear drainage, or conveyance pipes.

Other condition

The call announcement describes the household micro-retention project as serving owners, co-owners, or perpetual usufruct holders of a property with a single-family dwelling in semi-detached, terraced, or group housing. Separately, the specific criteria classify a natural-person grant recipient by ownership/co-ownership/perpetual usufruct of property with a single-family dwelling under the statutory definition, without repeating those three housing forms; the sources therefore differ in wording scope, which this review leaves unresolved. A family allotment-garden association is a separate recipient class under criterion 4(b). Where the property is co-owned, one co-owner applies with written consent from all others.

Other condition

The retention investment’s purpose is to store at least 2 m³ of rainwater/snowmelt on the property and retain/use it there, without needing to export or drain it off-property, except emergency situations. The garden-allotment variant has a separate scope/threshold as stated in criteria.

Other condition

The announcement states that the current FEnIKS detailed priority description sets neither minimum nor maximum project value nor a maximum grant amount for FENX.02.04; this is distinct from household grant eligible-cost thresholds in the specific criteria.

Other condition

This is a non-competitive call under FENX.02.04, project type 12 micro-retention, implemented by NFOŚiGW as Implementing Institution under the 2021–2027 FEnIKS programme; the call project is a grant-making project, not a direct household application to this NFO page.

Other condition

Applicant project design must evidence institutional, technical and staffing capacity; the criteria assess whether the WFOŚiGW structure and personnel resources are or will be sufficient. This is a capacity test, not a requirement for named hires or fixed headcount.

Other condition

For grant applications under a ROD allotment-garden association, the minimum eligible scope is PLN 1,000 multiplied by the number of allotments; criterion also states the related minimum/maximum values are adjusted by allotment count. Do not apply the household grant threshold to this variant.

Call allocation

PLN 28,463,070

The amount is the published call-level pool for the grant project, not a household award or per-project cap.

Eligible cost

Indirect project costs are settled by a 7% flat rate on direct costs, with periodic reimbursement, pro-rata through payment claims; they cannot be the basis of an advance payment. The cost-catalogue examples include project coordinator and personnel managing, accounting, monitoring or administrative project tasks. These are indirect-cost examples inside the flat-rate pool, not actual payroll reimbursement or a direct-cost entitlement.

Eligible cost

Project cost eligibility period is 1 July 2024–31 December 2029, with the project ending by 31 December 2029. The WFOŚiGW may claim eligible outlays by grant recipients for already-completed investments. Starting before the agreement is at the applicant’s own risk.

Eligible cost

The RWP lists eligible direct categories as external services, fixed assets/deliveries, construction work, information/promotion activities, and indirect costs. Specific household installation eligibility is limited by the §4 project scope and the selection criteria; no payroll category is listed as a direct cost class.

Eligible cost limitFENX.02.04-IW.01-004/26 grant-making project, NFOŚiGW/WFOŚiGW implementation; the rate is for the indirect-cost pool, not household recipients.

7 percent of direct costs

This is the project-level indirect-cost flat rate applied to direct costs under RWP §5, not a 7% cap on all eligible costs or household grants. Indirect costs are settled proportionally through payment claims as periodic reimbursement and cannot support an advance.

Eligible unit cost, maximum

PLN 8,000

The maximum eligible-cost scope under criterion 10 is PLN 8,000 for a non-ROD grant recipient; ROD has a separate PLN 4,000 times allotment count limit, stated separately.

Eligible unit cost, maximum

PLN 4,000

The ROD grant limit is PLN 4,000 multiplied by the number of allotments; this cost ceiling is distinct from the PLN 28,463,070 programme pool.

Funding intensity, maximum

100 percent of eligible grant-project costs

Maximum EFRR co-financing for the grant-making project at project level. This is not a stated household grant percentage; the rules do not supply a separate direct recipient payout rate in these provisions.

Ineligible cost

The same project or its elements cannot receive duplicate public financing, including from WFOŚiGW, NFOŚiGW, local-government units, or the “Moja Woda” programme.

Ineligible costFENX.02.04-IW.01-004/26 micro-retention call.

Green roofs (“zielone dachy”) are explicitly outside the support provided by this call.

This exclusion concerns the supported micro-retention scope in this exact call; it is separately typed for searchability and does not remove the other enumerated eligible rainwater-retention installations.

Project cost, minimum

PLN 2,000

This is the minimum eligible expenditure scope requested by an individual grant recipient. For ROD allotment-garden association grant projects, the threshold is instead calculated as PLN 1,000 times the number of garden allotments, not the household measure.

• Project management

  Staff cost the grant can fund

  This is an indirect-cost category only: costs are absorbed in the 7% flat-rate indirect-cost allowance on direct project costs, not reimbursed as separately evidenced payroll and not an instruction or commitment to hire. No headcount, FTE, duration, salary or applicant-specific role is stated. Distinguish from direct eligible cost categories, which list external services, deliveries/fixed assets, construction, information/promotion and indirect costs.
