Administration: South Tyrolean subsidy for energy-saving measures and the use of renewable energy sources
The provincial contribution is awarded at a rate of between 40% and 80% of the admissible costs, which were defined by resolution of the provincial government (no. 1143 of 19 December 2023). We assume that the provincial subsidies will also be confirmed in 2025 (we will not know until the end of December 2024). The contribution amount is based on the respective measure, the building type and the energy quality of the building (ClimateHouse class).
Energy-efficient refurbishment of buildings
Prerequisite: Building licence before 12.01.2005 + heated
Contribution amount: 80% for condominiums (at least 5 heated building units and at least 5 owners) with at least ClimateHouse B or ClimateHouse R certification, 50% for condominiums with ClimateHouse C building envelope certification, as well as buildings under monument and ensemble protection (for both: at least 5 heated building units and at least 5 owners), 50% for other buildings with at least ClimateHouse B or ClimateHouse R building certification, 40% for buildings with ClimateHouse C building envelope certification and buildings under monument and ensemble protection.
Eligible measures: Thermal insulation of external walls, roofs, top and bottom storey ceilings, terraces, pergolas, balconies, green roofs and additional costs for backfilled façades, ventilation systems with heat recovery, photovoltaic systems with or without storage batteries for condominiums (covering electricity requirements for communal systems), as well as planning, construction management, building certification and airtightness measurement.
Hydraulic balancing for existing heating and cooling systems
Prerequisites: Building licence before 01.01.2013
Contribution amount: 50% of the admissible costs
Replacement of oil and gas boilers in multi-family buildings
Prerequisite: Building with at least 5 heated units and 5 owners, year of construction of the central heating system before 2009
Contribution amount: 40% of the eligible costs
Eligible measures: District heating connection, installation of heat pumps, installation of automatically fuelled biomass heating systems (only possible when replacing oil boilers), as well as planning and construction management
Installation of solar thermal systems
Contribution amount: 40% of the eligible costs
Installation of electric heat pumps with photovoltaic systems
Prerequisite: after completion of the measure: certification at least ClimateHouse C or ClimateHouse R
Contribution amount: 40% of the eligible costs
Measures eligible for funding: Heat pump, hybrid heating systems with heat pump, geothermal heat extraction system, heat extraction system from composting, photovoltaic system, storage battery, as well as planning, construction management and building certification
Up to 40% contribution on expenditure excluding VAT is available for:
Installation of photovoltaic systems and wind turbines without a grid connection
The system must supply electricity consumers for whom a connection to the electricity grid cannot be realised more cost-effectively than the installation of a system.
Applications must be submitted before work begins and between 1 January and 31 May using the relevant forms, including a detailed cost estimate.
Note: In the catchment area of district heating systems, no subsidies are granted for heat generation systems and solar systems
