| State insulation falls behind expectations, ministry widens support |
| Bratislava, 21.02.2017 |
|
| Only 134 homeowners in the first round and 62 in the second applied for a subsidy via the insulation programme.
A pilot project for thermal insulation of houses operated in Slovakia as early as 1991. But even a quarter century later, there are still many buildings in need of more energy-efficient insulation.
For this reason the Transport and Construction Ministry provides generous subsidies to support mass installation of thermal insulation. The problem is that few applicants are interested in the support and even those who are do not always get it.
During the introduction of the programme in late summer 2016, Prime Minister Robert Fico justified the tool as “really 100-percent comprehensive thermal insulation which will lead to great energy savings” and expected hundreds of applicants.
After two rounds, however, less than 200 people have signed up for support. The Slovak Building Insulation Association (OZ ZPZ) sees a problem with developing the programme in the fact that homeowners who install the insulation on their own are not used to to the application process.
“People need to get used to the fact that implementation of these changes involves complex details and building permits,” OZ ZPZ chair Zuzana Sternová told The Slovak Spectator.
