In 2024, the amount of incentives for the implementation of measures related to energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy sources (RES) in non-ETS industry amounted to EUR 1.1 million, i.e. 18 % less than the previous year. Only Eco Fund incentives are considered in this amount, as the projects co-financed under the Operational Programme for the Implementation of the European Cohesion Policy in the 2014–2020 Period (OP ECP) were not prepared in such a way that the monitoring of effects related to climate targets would be possible. In total, EUR 20.9 million of incentives were paid in the period 2010–2024, which represents only 38% of the amount of incentives paid by the Eco Fund for the implementation of EE and RES measures in households in 2024 alone.

Funds available for climate-related projects should be in the future used in a manner more orientated towards the climate targets, concrete targets should be set (e.g. reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, increasing energy production from RES), and systematic monitoring of their effects should be ensured.
