Eligibility for Green House 2025 – Photovoltaics

To apply for the 2025 edition of the Green House Photovoltaic Program, the Environmental Fund Administration (AFM) requires compliance with the following clear conditions:

• Legal residence in Romania – the applicant must be a Romanian citizen with permanent residence in the country (valid ID required).
• Ownership of the property – the installation can only be mounted on a house or land fully owned by the applicant, proven with an official land registry extract.
• Residential use only – the property must be used exclusively for living purposes, without commercial or mixed activities.
• No tax debts – the applicant must have no outstanding debts to the National Tax Administration (ANAF) or to the local city hall (local taxes), proven by recently issued tax certificates.
• No previous Green House funding – applicants cannot submit two requests for the same property if they have already received similar funding in the past.

Required documents (valid during the application period):

1. Copy of ID card with the updated address where the system will be installed.
2. Land Registry Extract (issued within the last 60 days).
3. ANAF tax certificate (valid for 90 days).
4. City hall tax certificate (local taxes), valid for 30–90 days.
5. Declaration of eligibility on own responsibility.
6. Other documents (e.g., proof of grid connection) may be requested depending on the official AFM guidelines.

Registration steps for Green House 2025

Attention – according to the official statement, Green House 2025 is currently suspended and cannot be accessed in 2025. Those already registered may continue the process, but the launch of new sessions has been postponed until a new government is established.
For the future (when the program resumes), the following steps are expected:

1. Creating an account on the AFM platform – log in to the AFM application and register in advance, as the system will be overloaded at the start.
2. Filling in the online application and uploading documents – all files must be clearly scanned in PDF format, following the order and validity required by AFM.
3. Selecting an AFM-authorized installer – according to the public list; only works carried out by accredited companies are eligible.
4. File evaluation and approval – if the application meets the criteria, the file will be approved and the financing contract will be signed. The installer is selected automatically or based on the region: “first come, first served.”
5. Installation and acceptance of the system – after signing the contract, the installer carries out the works and commissioning, respecting AFM deadlines. Completion must be proven with technical reports and production data.
6. Payment and closure – AFM reimburses the agreed amount (up to 30,000 RON), and the beneficiary covers any additional costs (e.g., own contribution of about 10%, approx. 3,000 RON).

URBANLED Advice

• Prepare your documents in advance, don’t leave them for the last week.
• Test filling in the application with simulators (e.g., Kilowat) before the opening periods – real-time actions can make the difference.
• Subscribe to AFM website alerts or smart WhatsApp notifications for news about the session openings.

What is covered by the Green House 2025 – Photovoltaics Program

The funding provided by the Environmental Fund Administration includes the following eligible elements, with no upfront payment (the subsidy is granted through the installer):

Main Benefits for Green House 2025 Applicants

1. Generous financial support
   The subsidy of up to 30,000 RON covers approximately 90% of the cost of a standard photovoltaic system, making solar energy accessible to a wide range of households.
2. Significant reductions in energy bills
   With a photovoltaic system + battery, energy autonomy can be achieved for 9–10 months per year, and bills reduced by 70–90% – this model applies to average consumption of 250–300 kWh/month. Concrete example: savings of up to 7,900 RON/year for an independent apartment with a 5 kW + 5 kWh battery system.
3. Energy independence and security
   Power outages and tariff fluctuations become irrelevant for owners of photovoltaic systems with batteries: they automatically secure their own energy even during grid failures or market variations.
4. Prosumer status – injecting surplus brings financial benefits
   Produced but unused energy can be injected into the grid for later financial compensation (1:1, within 24 months), turning the installation into both a source of income and a local balancing tool.
5. Fast return on investment
   If the personal contribution (8–10% of the total) is about 3,000 RON, the payback period can be less than one year (in low-cost cases), and even with a higher contribution (up to 5,000 RON) full payback can occur in 3–5 years, depending on household consumption.
6. Added value for property and environmental impact
   Homes risk losing value if they do not adopt green solutions. Installing solar panels and batteries increases real estate market attractiveness. In addition, the program contributes to reducing CO₂ emissions and to achieving Romania’s environmental targets.
7. Flexibility and advanced technology
   For the first time in 2025, hybrid systems compatible with multiple types of batteries are eligible, offering technical freedom and the possibility of upgrades at any time, tailored to your real consumption.

URBANLED recommendation for beneficiaries

• Check and keep the validity of your documents before the official launch of the session (land registry extract, ANAF/DITL certificates). Most applications fail due to administrative reasons.
• Contact us for a free simulation: we help you choose the right system for your home’s consumption and prepare the file according to the AFM 2025 guide.
• We install within 3-5 days from approval, with accredited teams, and provide full support until you obtain the prosumer status.

Steps to enroll in the “Casa Verde 2025 – Photovoltaics” Program

Important: The Casa Verde Photovoltaics 2025 program was suspended starting July 1, 2025 according to the AFM decision – any new submission stage can only resume once an official notification is issued.
However, if you have already submitted your file or want to be ready when it restarts, here are the steps – as outlined in the AFM guide:

1. Registration on the AFM platform
   Create an online account (valid email required), use the official address where they will contact you. Accounts created in 2023 or 2024 can be reused.
2. Preparing digital documents
   Scan in PDF: copy of ID card (with correct address), ANAF tax certificate (no debts), DITL local tax certificate, land registry extract (valid ≤ 60 days), and if necessary, a certificate from the town hall if the ID address does not match the land registry address.
3. Uploading the application and documents
   The file is completed and submitted exclusively through the AFM application. Only one application is allowed per session and only for the specified address.
4. File validation and installer selection
   After submission, AFM automatically checks the compliance of documents. Then, the selection of the authorized installer is also done online, according to the updated lists of validated installers.
5. Contract signing and installation
   After approval, the financing contract is signed – the accredited installer installs the system. Installation is completed within 3-5 days depending on complexity.
6. Reception, prosumer status, and settlement
   After commissioning, the grid distributor grants the prosumer status; AFM reimburses up to 30,000 lei directly to the installer. The own contribution (approx. 3,000 lei) is recovered after the full commissioning.

Common Challenges & Practical Recommendations

URBANLED Final Recommendations

• Prepare all documents in advance, starting at least 2 weeks before.
• Use an already active AFM account or create one before the launch.
• Practice registration with an internal guide for peak days.
• Check the integrity of DOC/PDF files and the filled fields. Once submitted, no changes can be made.
• On “day zero,” stay connected to the internet with your email and account ready; don’t leave it to the last minute.
