Tochigi Prefecture: Decarbonized Society Development Promotion Subsidy (Boiler Fuel Conversion Replacement)

Tochigi Prefecture's subsidy program supports businesses in transitioning from fossil fuel boilers to low-carbon fuel boilers as part of achieving a decarbonized society. Eligible applicants include corporations, NPOs, and municipalities across manufacturing, construction, food service, healthcare, nursing care, education, lodging, and other sectors. Subsidized costs include boiler purchase and installation, related piping work, and ancillary equipment, with subsidies covering a specified percentage of eligible expenses. The program requires conversion from existing boilers to low-carbon fuel sources (biomass, natural gas, etc.), with preference given to applicants demonstrating environmental commitment and future sustainability plans. With decarbonization becoming increasingly important, Tochigi's robust environmental investment support makes early consultation and application submission critical for securing subsidy benefits.
