Energy voucher and price caps on electricity, gas, and heating
The act introduces a one-time financial support called the 'energy voucher' for lower-income households and extends protection against high energy bills in the second half of 2024. This keeps electricity, gas, and district heating prices regulated and provides direct financial aid to those in need.
Key points
Energy voucher: One-time financial aid for households with monthly incomes up to PLN 2,500 (single person) or PLN 1,700 per person (multi-person).
Voucher amounts: Ranges from PLN 300 to PLN 600, doubling to PLN 600–1,200 for households using electricity as their primary heating source.
Złoty for złoty rule: Exceeding the income limit does not disqualify you; the voucher amount is simply reduced by the exceeded amount.
Application deadline: Applications must be submitted between August 1 and September 30, 2024, either at the local municipal office or online via the mObywatel app.
Electricity price cap: The electricity price for households is capped at PLN 500 per MWh from July 1 to December 31, 2024.
Gas and heating protection: Price limits on gas and district heating are extended to prevent sudden spikes in heating bills.
