Are you a business owner of a building in NCG's reinforcement program? You can also apply for this grant on a business basis. For more information, visit the subsidy page: Groningen Sustainability Grant - € 7,000 (Business).

What can you get a grant for?

• Energy-saving measures, such as roof, floor, wall and cavity wall insulation, HR++ or triple glazing, and insulating doors and frames.
• Renewable energy solutions, such as solar panels, solar water heaters, heat pumps, infrared panels and heat recovery techniques.
• Maintenance work, such as replacing window frames, roofing or electrical wiring.
• Building improvements, such as a new boiler, bathroom or kitchen.
• A customized recommendation for energy conservation and/or sustainability.

How much subsidy can you receive?

The grant will reimburse 100% of eligible costs, up to a maximum of €7,000 per address.

What are the conditions?

• The applicant is the owner of the property or building for which an application is made
• The building has or will receive a reinforcement assessment made with outdated insights. This means that the assessment was done with insights that do not yet take into account the cessation of gas production in 2022
• This is an assessment with the NPR:9998: 2018 epoch 2 or an earlier version of the NPR:9998
• You can combine the preservation measures with the reinforcement measures. You can also apply for the subsidy if your home or other building has already been reinforced.
• You can also send in bills and payment receipts of measures you have already taken after Nov. 6, 2020.
• You have two moments to submit an application. This applies per address and may be up to the maximum of 7,000 euros
• Measures for which you apply for a grant must be implemented within three years
• Note that in some projects this grant is already part of the reinforcement project

How does the SVG subsidy for owners' associations (VvEs) work?

It is not possible to apply from an Owners' Association (VvE) for the public or common parts. It is possible to apply individually that accrue to the joint parts of the VvE, such as the installation of solar panels or new glazing. It is then the responsibility of the recipient to coordinate the subsidy with the rest of the CoE owners.

When can you apply for a grant?

Application for the Groningen Sustainability Grant is possible until May 31, 2026.

Grant up to €17,000 when assessed with old insights

For homes that meet the old standard according to the old understanding, or a
assessment with new insights have/gain, other conditions apply.
These owners have been waiting a long time for an assessment and therefore receive extra
compensation. The grant can be applied for the same measures and
amounts to a maximum of €17,000.
