Main conditions:
- in 2021 electricity and natural gas bills totalled at least 3% of output sold [2021 is the reference year];
- at least 50% of revenue in the last closed financial year, which usually means 2022, was generated from activities classified under sections B or C (divisions 05 to 33);
- the refund applies to electricity and natural gas costs incurred in 2023.
Further details are available in application documents at https://www.gov.pl/web/nfosigw/ogloszenia.
Businesses eligible for electricity price cap during the period may only apply for support with respect to gas costs.
