Apply for a sustainability loan
With the Sustainability Loan you borrow money to make your home more energy efficient. For example, by installing floor insulation or facade insulation. Or by buying solar panels or a heat pump. Register with the municipality via the registration form. We will assess your application. You then apply for the loan yourself from the Housing Incentive Fund (SVn).
