State support for OSBB (condominium association) backup power currently consists of several separate programs with different operators, different terms and different application statuses. Below is a short map of what we checked on the official pages on 23 October 2026, and where to go for terms that may change.

Where an OSBB should start
- Define the need. Backup power for the elevator and pumps, own generation or a heat pump: this determines which programs fit at all. The backup power calculator gives an approximate scale.
- Check the building type and height. The number of floors determines the amount in SvitloDIM, and the type of equipment determines the compensation percentage in the loan program.
- Read the operator page. Open the official program page and note the date and the application status.
- Calculate the residents’ share. The difference between the project cost and the support has to be collected from residents; see the calculation on the program pages.
- Hold a meeting. The decision to participate and on contributions is made by co-owners under your charter and the law; the legal steps are described in the OSBB section.
