Information on rainwater storage tank installation subsidy program

We support citizens who are thinking about reuse of rainwater.

Last update date April 1, 2024

Application acceptance period  

From Monday, April 15, 1961 to Friday, January 31, 7
Please be sure to check the following items before applying within the application period.

Grant amount

It is half of the purchase price (including tax). However, the maximum amount of the grant is 20,000 yen.
If a fraction occurs, round it down to less than 100 yen.

Example of calculation of grant amount

When purchasing a rainwater storage tank of 35,500 yen and an accessory of 1,000 yen (36,500 yen in total)
36,500 yen x 1/2 = 18,250 yen
Since less than 100 yen will be rounded down, the grant amount will be 18,200 yen.

Grantees

Owner of buildings in the city (in the case of apartment, the divisional ownership is regarded as one building).
However, buildings that have used this subsidy program in the past are not eligible for the grant.
