The Andalusian Regional Government, through the Regional Ministry of Employment, Enterprise and Self-Employment, has launched an grants package for small and medium-sized enterprises and self-employed workers. This support is intended to compensate for increased energy costs due to high natural gas and electricity prices caused by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
How is it calculated?
Specifically, the calculation of the grant will take into account the average cost based on the cost per kWh in 2021 and its comparison with that incurred in the 2022 period for which the aid is granted (February to December 2022), with the difference in cost, applied to the consumption in the eligible period, being the amount of aid.
How to apply for grants?
In order to facilitate the process of processing the grant, we have decided to adhere to the established collaboration protocol. As a result, Evergreen Eléctrica’s customers will be able to apply for the grant directly through the website of the Junta de Andalucía (https://www.juntadeandalucia.es). Once the application has been submitted, the Junta de Andalucía will be responsible for managing the application process with the supplier. With the prior consent given at the time of application, the retailer will share the necessary billing data with the Junta de Andalucía.
Need more information?
In the Website ayudasobrecosteenergetico.es You can find more information on how to apply for this grant, as well as on 012, the Junta de Andalucía’s free telephone number, which is open from Monday to Friday, except for national and regional holidays, from 8:00 to 20:00 hours; and Saturdays, from 8:00 to 15:00 hours. We encourage you to apply now for these grants, which come with 525 million euros from European funds, and whose concurrence is NON-competitive, which means that they will be resolved on a first come, first served basis and paid before the end of this year.
