Potential tailwind for promotion of PVC windows again - NEDOfs additional offering of subsidies for eco-buildings

As mentioned earlier, NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization) had carried out a gProject for Promoting the Introduction of High-efficiency Housing/Building Systemsh. The scheme proved to be extremely popular and the subsidies supplied soon reached its maximum budget and the offer was closed accordingly.

A supplementary budget had passed recently and therefore additional subsidy is being offered from November 13. A total of 2 billion yen of subsidy is being offered again, and the screening criteria remain unchanged. However, this time, not only housings but also office buildings are subject.

This fiscal year they had doubled their subsidy budget to 2 billion yen, and this additional budget brings the figure to 4 billion yen. Our industry is hoping that this scheme would help boost the promotion of PVC windows.
