In 2025, in Girona and in Catalonia as a whole, there are specific subsidies for the removal of asbestos (uralite) and for the installation of photovoltaic solar panels. In addition, it is possible to access combined subsidies if both actions are carried out together, which is a great opportunity to rehabilitate old roofs and generate clean energy.
