The state compensates for expenses on utility services, building maintenance, and solid fuel
The Pension Fund of Ukraine has published a list of housing and utility services for which households can receive a government subsidy. The list includes both basic utility services and expenses for purchasing fuel for furnace heating. This is reported by the portal PromPolitInform, citing information from Pension Fund of Ukraine, based on data from the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
In accordance with the Government Resolution No. 848, assistance for the payment of housing and utility services covers a wide range of expenses. Specifically, the subsidies cover services for the management of apartment buildings, the supply and distribution of natural gas, electricity, hot water, and thermal energy.
The list also includes centralized water supply and sewage, waste management services, and expenses for subscriber servicing. Citizens using furnace heating have the option to receive a subsidy for the purchase of solid or liquid furnace fuel, as well as liquefied gas.
Specifics of fuel subsidy accruals
The Pension Fund emphasized an important restriction: state assistance for the purchase of furnace fuel is provided only to households that are not supplied with other types of utility heating. This means that if there is gas or electric heating, as well as a centralized system, the right to a subsidy for a different type of fuel does not apply.
In cases where multiple energy sources are used simultaneously to heat a building, the subsidy is granted exclusively for one type of heating. Exceptions are situations in apartment buildings where owners of autonomous heating systems are forced to pay for thermal energy used to heat common areas.
