This project was established to reduce air pollution emissions caused by old boilers and to expand the distribution of high-efficiency boilers. The main objective is to support energy-vulnerable groups, such as basic livelihood security recipients, low-income households, and social welfare facilities, in order to ease the burden of heating costs during winter and improve residential environments.

Eligible applicants include basic livelihood security recipients, low-income households, disability pension recipients, single-parent families, and low-income households with two or more children (where the youngest child is 18 years old or younger and household income is at or below 100% of the median income), as well as welfare facilities for children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. However, public institutions and public facilities are excluded from the program.

The subsidy provides up to 600,000 won per eco-friendly condensing boiler installed. Applications can be submitted in person at the Eunpyeong District Office’s Climate and Environment Division or online through the Ministry of Environment’s integrated portal, Eco Square (www.ecosq.or.kr). Applications will be accepted until the December budget is exhausted. For more information, contact the Living Environment Team of the Climate and Environment Division at Eunpyeong District Office (02-351-7638).

Kim Mikyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong District, stated, “With winter approaching, I hope this project will provide meaningful support to low-income households and welfare facilities facing high heating costs. I encourage many residents to take interest and participate so that we can create a comfortable and warm living environment through the replacement of eco-friendly boilers.”
