Change to the Heat Pump Subsidy Program
Starting in 2024, a heat pump must have at least an A++ energy label to qualify for the ISDE subsidy. Most heat pumps already meet this requirement. Heat pumps with an energy label of A+ or lower will no longer be eligible for a subsidy. Did you purchase a heat pump with an A+ or lower label in 2023? If so, you will still be eligible for a subsidy if you have it installed in 2024.
The subsidy amounts for heat pumps with an energy label of A++ or higher have been increased by €450. The equivalent bonus that was previously provided for these energy-efficient heat pumps will be discontinued. However, heat pumps with an energy label of A+++ will now be eligible for an additional bonus of €225.
The change to the energy label does not apply to heat pump water heaters or to heat pumps with a thermal capacity of 71 kW or higher.
Adjustment of Grant Amounts
Starting in 2024, applicants who have a solar water heater installed will receive a smaller subsidy for larger solar collectors. This prevents a disproportionately large amount of subsidy from being paid out (over-incentivization).
- Solar water heaters with a surface area of 5 to 10 m² receive €0.55 per kWh. Previously, this amount was €1.02.
- Solar water heaters with a surface area of more than 10 m² receive €0.28 per kWh. Previously, this amount was €0.45.
The subsidy for connecting to the district heating network will be increased from €3,350 to €3,775.
New Budget for Small Wind Turbines for Business Users
Since 2020, business entities—such as legal entities, partnerships, foundations, general partnerships (VOF), or limited partnerships (CV)—have been able to apply for ISDE subsidies for solar panels and small wind turbines. The government is making a new budget available for small wind turbines. Between January 1, 2024, and December 31, 2027, the total budget is €20 million. Starting in 2024, there will no longer be an ISDE subsidy for solar panels.
