Main Support Programs for Photovoltaics in 2025

Currently, there are two main programs in Poland that allow you to obtain funding for photovoltaic installations: "My Electricity" and "Clean Air". Additionally, investors can benefit from the thermomodernization relief, which allows you to deduct investment costs from your taxable income.

"My Electricity 6.0" Program – Record Budget and New Conditions

The "My Electricity" program in its sixth edition has a record budget of PLN 1.85 billion. Applications opened on September 2, 2024, and will last until December 20, 2024, or until funds are exhausted.

• Funding up to 50% of eligible costs.
• For micro PV installations without additional elements – up to PLN 6,000.
• With energy or heat storage – up to PLN 7,000.
• Electricity storage (min. 2 kWh) – up to PLN 16,000.
• Heat storage (min. 20 dm³) – up to PLN 5,000.
• Maximum – up to PLN 28,000 support for a comprehensive investment.

"Clean Air" Program – Up to PLN 15,000 for Photovoltaics

The "Clean Air" program offers support for owners of single-family houses and apartments with separate land and mortgage registers. The amount of subsidy for photovoltaics:

• PLN 6,000 – basic level
• PLN 9,000 – increased level
• PLN 15,000 – highest level

The condition for obtaining the subsidy is replacing the old heat source with a new one. The greatest benefits are for those who combine the purchase of a heat pump with a PV installation.

Conditions for Obtaining Funding

For the "My Electricity 6.0" Program

• Be a prosumer (produce energy for your own needs and feed surpluses into the grid).
• Settle in the net-billing system.
• Expenses incurred after January 1, 2021.
• Microinstallation with a capacity from 2 to 20 kW.
• From August 1, 2024 – mandatory energy or heat storage for new applications.

For the "Clean Air" Program

• Subsidy for PV only as part of a comprehensive building modernization.
• No more than 50% of eligible costs.

Benefits of Energy Storage

• Increased household energy autonomy.
• Less dependence on the power grid.
• Better use of RES and reduced energy losses.
• Lower electricity bills.
• Reduction of CO₂ emissions.

How to Apply for Funding?

Applications for the "My Electricity 6.0" program are submitted online via the NFOŚiGW application generator. A trusted profile or e-ID is required. Applications are open until December 20, 2024, or until funds are exhausted.

Comparison of Available Support Forms

• "My Electricity 6.0" – the main program for those planning PV installation, with high funding and a bonus for energy storage.
• "Clean Air" – for those modernizing the entire building, with a subsidy for PV as part of a package.
• Thermomodernization relief – deduction of PV expenses from tax, can be combined with subsidies.

Summary

The new photovoltaic funding program is an opportunity to significantly reduce the cost of investing in RES. The record budget, focus on energy storage, and fast application process make it worth considering installing panels now. Take advantage of subsidies up to PLN 15,000 or even PLN 28,000 for a comprehensive investment and increase your energy independence!
