Heating Allowance
A subsidy towards buying heating fuel, with income and property limits that scale with family composition and the number of children. The cycle usually opens in the autumn, under a fresh decision each year.
The 2026–2027 cycle has not been announced yet (last known cycle: 2025–2026, applications until 05/12/2025)

What it is
The heating allowance subsidises the purchase of heating fuel (heating oil, natural gas, LPG, firewood, pellets, district heating) for the main residence. The application is submitted on the myThermansi (myΘέρμανση) platform of AADE (Independent Authority for Public Revenue), and each cycle opens with a separate decision, usually in the autumn.
THE LIMITS ARE SCALED — THEY ARE NOT A SINGLE NUMBER. In the 2025–2026 cycle the annual household income could not exceed €16,000 for a single person, €24,000 for married couples or civil partners and €29,000 for a single-parent family, increased by €5,000 for each dependent child. The total value of real estate could not exceed €200,000 for a single, widowed or divorced person and €260,000 for married couples or single-parent families, increased by €40,000 per dependent child. For business activity, a maximum annual turnover of €80,000 applied.
WHY WE DO NOT ASSESS IT AUTOMATICALLY. Because the limits rise per child with no ceiling, they go beyond the top of the ranges in the questions we ask about income and property. Any automatic exclusion would turn away real beneficiaries, so we prefer to give you the figures and let you do your own calculation.
The 2026–2027 cycle had not opened when this text was written. Its exact amounts and dates are announced with a new decision — see AADE's myThermansi page for what applies at the time you are reading.
PLANNED FROM 2028 (not yet in force). Greece's Social Climate Plan, approved by the European Commission on 27/8/2026, provides an additional amount on top of the heating allowance from the Social Climate Fund, only for energy-vulnerable households heating with heating oil, natural gas or LPG, for five years (2028-2032). It will be paid together with the heating allowance, with the first payment in the first quarter of 2028, and registration in a new energy-support registry will be needed. The amount and the terms have not been set yet.
