Quotes and invoices

Have the energy-saving measures not yet been implemented?

Then provide a signed quotation or signed order confirmation. This must include a start date or week number of commencement of work with a completion date within 24 months. In addition, the quote or order confirmation must also be signed with a signature from the contractor and you as the applicant.

Note! When you sign the quote, you are making a commitment. Is the date of signing before the date of the damage report? Then you made the commitment too early.

You may sign the quote subject to the grant. Should your application be rejected, you have no obligation with the installer. Furthermore, the start date or week number of the work may be agreed upon subject to planning and materials. The work must eventually be completed within 24 months.

Have you already had the energy-saving measures implemented?

Then provide a final invoice with proof of payment. This should include your name, export address, information about the measures performed, invoice date, invoice amount and contractor's information. The proof of payment must match the invoice and must not have been paid through a business bank account number.

Note! A final invoice is eligible (retroactively) only if the invoice date and proof of payment are after the date of your damage report.

If you submit an application based on a quotation whose obligation was incurred too early, you cannot rectify this with an invoice that does comply. After all, we have then already noted that the obligation was incurred on a date before the date of recognition of loss.
