Gyeonggi Province will provide 3.4 billion KRW of provincial funds to support the residential solar power installation project, which has been reduced due to government budget cuts.

Gyeonggi Province announced on the 7th that it will support the installation costs of solar power systems for 1,267 single-family homes, including multi-family houses, and will accept applications for residential solar power (3kW) installations in two phases starting from the 13th of this month.

The first application period is from the 13th to the 31st of this month. If selected as a beneficiary household, Gyeonggi Province will cover 50% of the installation cost, the city or county will cover 20%, and the homeowner will bear 30%. Residents can install a 3kW residential solar power system costing a total of 5,338,000 KRW by paying 1,600,000 KRW.

The second application period begins on June 14. Gyeonggi Province will cover 50% of the installation cost, and the homeowner will pay the remaining 50%. Homeowners in Namyangju, Ansan, Gimpo, Gwangju, and Gwangmyeong cities, where city or county funds were not separately allocated due to budget shortages, can apply during the second application period.

Through these first and second phases, Gyeonggi Province plans to install residential solar power systems in 1,267 homes within the province.

Kim Yeon-ji, Director of the Energy Industry Division of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "Gyeonggi Province plans to support the installation of residential solar power systems in about 3,000 households to actively respond to the climate crisis and reduce residents' electricity bills," adding, "We will expand support so that more Gyeonggi residents can reduce their electricity costs in preparation for the heatwave."
