Homeowner funds for replacing air-conditioning units 'offered in some regions'

 

Homeowner funds for replacing air-conditioning units 'offered in some regions'

ThinkSPAIN Team 23/08/2024

GRANTS of up to €250 are available this year for replacing older air-conditioning units in a bid to encourage greater energy efficiency. 

Not all regional governments offer funding, but for those which do, no deadline for applying has been set as yet – meaning it may not be too late to request a cashback.

Known as a Plan Renove ('Renewal' or 'Replacement' Plan), payments are made when installing fitted units with an energy-efficiency rating of at least A+.

Unfortunately, funds are not given for first-time installations – only for upgrading older, existing units with a higher energy consumption.

Typically, applicants need to be registered as resident in the region whose government is offering the cash, meaning the scheme is unsuitable for holiday-home owners who live in a different part of Spain or abroad.

The maximum of €250 represents a percentage of the cost incurred by the homeowner, which must be proven through purchase receipts.

If the applicant is successful, he or she will receive the money post-purchase, in the form of a partial refund.

Further details are provided on regional government websites.

A full list of which regional authorities offer the air-conditioning Plan Renove grants has not been published, and requisites may vary by region.
