Building law simplifications: new definitions, notifications and energy storage

The act introduces numerous changes to building law to make investments easier for citizens. It defines new types of buildings, expands the list of structures that can be built without permits, and regulates the installation of electricity storage units. It also extends the deadline for paper construction journals until the end of 2031.

More investments without permits: notification now possible for small public utility buildings up to 200 m², home protective structures up to 35 m², telecommunication containers, columbariums, culverts and electricity storage units.
Electricity storage regulations: rules for installing home energy storage up to 300 kWh (notification) and larger units up to 2000 kWh (permit), with fire service coordination required.
Extension of paper construction journals: can be maintained until December 31, 2031, instead of 2026.
Flood victim relief: in disaster-affected areas, temporary structures can be used for 2 years without zoning conditions decisions.
Changes in stamp duties: 155 PLN fee introduced for accepting notifications of new building categories.
