The Ministry of Energy, Mining and Mineral Resources announced that the Program amending the Program for encouraging household gas supply for 2026 has been published in the “Official Gazette.” With this amendment, the deadline for submitting applications for financial support has been extended until October 31, 2026.
According to the ministry, this decision creates a new opportunity for all households that have not yet applied to benefit from state aid. The support amounts to up to 30,000 denars, or up to 70 percent of the costs incurred for connecting to the natural gas network or for purchasing a gas boiler.

For the implementation of this measure, 3 million denars have been made available, while the distribution of the funds will be carried out on a “first come, first served” basis, until the fund is exhausted. According to the ministry, the extension of the deadline has a clear goal: to enable as many citizens as possible to make use of this measure, reduce heating costs and at the same time use a cleaner and more efficient energy source.
Eligible to apply are households that during 2026 will connect their homes to the natural gas distribution system, as well as households that will purchase a gas boiler for a property that had already been connected to the system by January 1, 2026. Each household has the right to submit only one application.
The Ministry called on all interested citizens to submit their applications on time, in accordance with the conditions of the public call. Additional information can be found on the Ministry’s official website – www.energy.gov.mk.
After the deadline expires, the submitted applications will be reviewed by a commission established by the Ministry, while financial support will be transferred to all beneficiaries who meet the established conditions. The ministry emphasized that support for citizens, increasing energy efficiency and creating better living conditions remain among the main priorities of the Ministry of Energy, Mining and Mineral Resources. Through such measures, according to the ministry, it continues to implement policies that bring direct benefits to families and help build a safer, cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
