The Agencia Andaluza de la Energía opened applications on 22 October 2026 for the “Sector residencial y edificios e instalaciones públicas” programme. The budget amounts to 20.77 million euros; applications can be submitted until 30 September 2027 or until the funds are fully used. The programme is based on the Resolución de 21 de septiembre de 2026, published in the Boletín Oficial de la Junta de Andalucía. The programme is co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER).

Funding is available for investments that improve energy efficiency or enable the use of renewable energy in buildings. Eligible properties include residential buildings, non-residential buildings used by the public, and certain private residential facilities such as student and care homes for older people. Eligible measures include insulating façades and roofs, replacing windows, upgrading heating and hot-water systems, modernising lighting, and installing solar thermal systems and photovoltaics. Measures must improve the building’s energy rating.

The minimum grant is 10,000 euros for efficiency-only measures and 6,000 euros for renewable technologies in residential buildings. Photovoltaic systems with self-consumption must include a storage unit with a capacity of 5 kilowatt-hours per kilowatt of installed capacity. Systems not used for economic activities may not receive payment for surplus electricity fed into the grid.

Grant rates vary by recipient and measure: individuals generally receive 50 per cent of eligible costs, rising to as much as 65 per cent subject to certain additional conditions. The basic grant rate for local authorities is 70 per cent; this can rise to 80 per cent when combined with renewable components. Businesses receive different rates according to their size and project type, with possible top-ups.

Applications are submitted electronically via the Agencia Andaluza de la Energía platform. The detailed provisions in the Resolución govern the scope, technical requirements and supporting documents. The Junta de Andalucía states that applications are processed in the order received and that the call will close without further notice once the budget has been exhausted.

The programme is aimed at property owners, public authorities and operators in Andalusia and is intended to reduce energy consumption, mobilise investment and accelerate the expansion of renewable energy in the region.
