Accelerating the Green Transition
EAC Supply, in collaboration with the Cyprus Energy Agency, has announced the launch of the groundbreaking AHK+ Grant Scheme. Designed to support businesses, local authorities, and vulnerable households in Cyprus, this initiative marks a significant step toward a cleaner, more efficient energy future.
Targeted Upgrades for Immediate Impact
The scheme is strategically divided into two categories. Category A focuses on the rapid replacement of outdated lighting fixtures with modern LED technology. Businesses, organizations, and local authorities are encouraged to upgrade their lighting systems by subsidizing LED panels (60x60cm) at a grant rate of €30 per unit and round LED panels (17cm) at €20 per unit. This targeted investment is crafted to curtail unnecessary energy consumption immediately.

Enhancing Comfort and Efficiency for Vulnerable Households
Category B is tailored exclusively for vulnerable AHK Supply customers under Tariff 08. By subsidizing the replacement of older, energy-intensive air-conditioning units with high-efficiency models rated A++ or A+++, the scheme ensures that these households not only experience enhanced comfort but also enjoy long-term energy savings. Grants under this category vary between €170 and €470 per unit, reflecting the capacity of the new device installed.
Robust Funding and Streamlined Application Process
Boasting a total budget of €5.5 million, with €4.5 million allocated to lighting and €1 million directed toward air-conditioning replacements, the AHK+ Grant Scheme is set to run for three years. Applications are accepted through the dedicated electronic platform until September 30, 2028, or until the funds are fully depleted. Interested parties should consult the scheme’s official platform and review detailed guidelines available in the official guide.
The Future of Energy Efficiency in Cyprus
This initiative not only promises immediate economic and environmental benefits but also demonstrates a forward-thinking model for energy efficiency. By strategically investing in modern lighting and air-conditioning systems, Cyprus is setting a benchmark for smart energy management and sustainable growth across sectors.
