The European Commission has approved, under EU State aid rules, a €401m Czech scheme to promote green district heating based on renewable energy and waste heat, which will run until December 2025.
The scheme will be open to owners of heat generation installations holding a heat energy production licence and producing heat from biomass or waste that is considered a renewable energy source; it will support the installation of new biomass-fired or waste-fired heat generation units with a capacity above 500 kW. The scheme is expected to support the installation of approximately 345 MWt of renewable heat generation capacity.
The measure will contribute to the implementation of Czechia‘s National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) and to the EU's strategic objectives relating to the European Green Deal.
