In combination, the measures will lead to lower household energy bills as well as lower CO2 emissions. The underlying calls have been launched in October 2021 under the New Green Savings program, with a total allocation of CZK 8.5 billion (around EUR 360 million) by 2025.

This was of crucial importance, in particular during the COVID crisis, when basic equipment was often lacking, posing a significant danger of pupils falling behind, especially those already at a socio-economic disadvantage. 740000 devices were bought and used during COVID and, so far, almost CZK 2.7 billion (over EUR 100 million) were spent. More devices will be bought in the future.

This will support biodiversity and fight climate change and is especially important following the bark-beetle calamities in Czechia.
