The website for the New ExoEconomy (ExoEconomy 2021) is now available to the public ( https://exoikonomo2021.gov.gr ). In it, interested parties can see all the necessary information related to the program, through which up to 50,000 homes will be energy upgraded, 38% more than in the previous cycle.

The Exoikonomo 2021 Program

Tο Πρόγραμμα Εξοικονομώ 2021, είναι το νέο πρόγραμμα ενεργειακής αναβάθμισης κατοικιών, που αποτελεί το διάδοχο σχήμα των προγραμμάτων «Εξοικονόμηση κατ’ Οίκον» και «Εξοικονομώ Αυτονομώ».
The design of the Program takes into account the integrated approach of energy saving interventions in the residential building sector and aims at:
• the reduction of the energy needs of buildings and the emissions of pollutants that contribute to the worsening of the greenhouse effect
• saving costs for citizens, improving daily living and comfort conditions as well as the safety and health of citizens when using these buildings;
• achieving a cleaner environment.

The Program consists of providing incentives for energy saving interventions in the residential building sector, with the aim of reducing energy needs and consumption of conventional fuels, in the context of the transition to an "Energy Efficient Home".

The "Exoikonomo 2021" Program refers to buildings that have a building permit or other legal document, are used as their main residence and whose owners meet specific income criteria. In particular, the Program includes five (5) categories of incentives, in which the Beneficiaries are included according to their income. Also, incentives are provided for energy upgrade interventions in apartment buildings with individual applications of individual apartments that include communal and non-communal upgrade interventions.

Φορέας Υλοποίησης του Προγράμματος είναι το Τεχνικό Επιμελητήριο Ελλάδας (https://web.tee.gr).

Προϋπολογισμός προγράμματος Εξοικονομώ 2021

The budget amounts to EUR 632,000,000.00. Το πρόγραμμα Εξοικονομώ 2021 θα χρηματοδοτηθεί από το Ταμείο Ανάκαμψης και μαζί με τη μόχλευση θα κινητοποιηθούν συνολικά πάνω από 1 δισ. euro. The "New Exoikonomo" will contribute significantly to the achievement of the goal set in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) for the total energy upgrade of 600,000 buildings by 2030.

Subsidized Housing

Within the framework of the Program there are two (2) distinct types of applications:

J. Application for an Individual Apartment or Detached House,
ii. Apartment Building application (including applications of apartments as part of an application to an apartment building).

Beneficiaries - Incentives

Natural persons who have a lien on an eligible residence are eligible to participate in the ExoEconomy 2021 Programme.

The right in rem (full ownership / usufruct / small ownership) of the applicant should exist during the reference year of the Program (tax year 2020) as well as at the time of submission of the application.

In case there are several beneficiaries of rights in rem (joint owners) in an eligible residence: if the main use of the residence under application is made by one of the joint owners, only the co-owner who owns it has the right to participate in the Program.

If the main use of the residence under application is made by another person who is not a joint owner, the right to participate in the Program is granted to anyone with a right in rem of full ownership / usufruct (not small ownership), with the consent of the others.

An application for an energy upgrade in a house whose right in rem was acquired after 31/12/2020 (recent acquisition of property) is not accepted.

Short-term rental properties are not eligible.

For applications of individual apartments, detached houses and apartments as part of an application to an Apartment Building, the maximum grant rate is defined as follows:

The new programme includes 5 categories of aid, based on the income criteria of the beneficiaries

-In case the use of housing is made by the applicant (owner-occupied housing), the subsidy rate is staggered per income category. In case there are several co-owners, only the co-owner who owns it has the right to apply to the Program.

-Σε περίπτωση όπου η χρήση κατοικίας γίνεται από τρίτο πρόσωπο-μη συγκύριο, (δωρεάν παραχώρηση/ενοικίαση), κατά την οποία δικαίωμα υποβολής αίτησης στο Πρόγραμμα Εξοικονομώ 2021 έχει οποιοσδήποτε εκ των επικαρπωτών – πλήρων κυρίων (όχι ο ψιλός κύριος), το ποσοστό επιχορήγησης είναι σταθερό και ανεξάρτητο εισοδηματικής κατηγορίας.

For apartment building applications, when the total of the millimeters of the apartment building participates, an additional grant (bonus) of + 10% is provided to the planned grant rate of each participating apartment.

The grant rate refers to the eligible intervention budget. For the remainder of up to 100% of the eligible intervention budget there is the possibility of granting a loan. The interest subsidy is given on the basis of a relevant request of the Beneficiary.
