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