For years, the New Green Savings programme was one of the Czech government’s most successful initiatives. It helped people lower their utility bills, increased the value of their homes, and had clear environmental benefits. Thanks to the subsidy, a typical family living in an older home could afford insulation that they would otherwise have put off for years—the subsidy covered roughly 30 to 50% of the costs, heating bills dropped by a third, and the home’s value rose by more than 10%.
