Daejeon City Supports Installation of 'Eco-Friendly Home Boilers' for Vulnerable Groups

Daejeon City announced on the 7th that it will start a support project for the installation of eco-friendly boilers for households from the 13th of this month.

The project will provide installation cost support for 1,581 eco-friendly household boilers to energy-vulnerable households such as low-income and near-poverty groups.

The support amount is 600,000 KRW per unit when installing a new eco-friendly boiler or replacing an old household boiler with an eco-friendly one. Even if the tenant is the support target, the homeowner can apply with a lease contract and supporting documents for eligibility to receive the same amount of support.

This year, in addition to low-income and vulnerable groups including recipients of government aid, near-poverty groups, and single-parent families, multi-child households (with two or more children) with a basic median income of 70% or less and social welfare facilities are also included in the support targets.

Applications can be made by accessing ‘Exquare’ or by mail or visit to the local district office of the residence.

The application period is until December 6 of this year. For more detailed information about the application, please refer to the announcement posted in the announcement section on the Daejeon City website.

Jung Haegyo, Director of the Environment and Greenery Bureau of Daejeon City, said, “Since houses where vulnerable tenants live can also receive support benefits, we ask landlords to participate.”
