Heating Voucher (Bon Cieplniczy) – Key Data

This text details a new heating ‍voucher program for seniors in Poland receiving pensions up to ​PLN 3,272.69. Here’s a breakdown of the important points:

1. Eligibility:

* Crucially, you MUST use‍ “system heat” to qualify. This means heat supplied through a⁣ district heating network from heating plants or combined heat and power plants.
* You DO NOT qualify⁢ if you use: gas, coal, pellet furnaces, or heat pumps for heating.
* Primarily for residents of larger cities where system heat is common. residents ⁣of ⁢smaller towns with ​individual heating sources are generally ineligible.

2. Voucher Amounts:

The voucher amount depends on​ your heating costs (measured in GJ net) and the year you ⁢receive it.

For 2025:

* ⁢ PLN 500: Heating costs between PLN 170/GJ and ⁤PLN 200/GJ net.
* PLN 1,000: Heating costs​ between PLN 200/GJ ⁢and PLN 230/GJ net.
*‍ PLN 1,750: Heating costs over PLN 230/GJ net.

for ​2026:

* PLN 1,000: ‍Heating costs between PLN​ 170/GJ and‍ PLN 200/GJ net.
* PLN 2,000: Heating costs between PLN 200/GJ and PLN 230/GJ net.
* PLN 3,500: Heating costs over ‍PLN 230/GJ net.

3. Expected Amounts:

Because most system heat prices in poland are closer to PLN 170/GJ, most recipients are expected to receive PLN 500 in ‍2025 and PLN 1,000 in 2026.

In short: Check if you have radiators connected ⁤to a district heating network. If you do,and your pension is‍ below‌ the threshold,you might potentially​ be eligible for this voucher.
