Sustainability Loan Laarbeek

Written by Vincent Verloop on .

Are you planning to make your home more energy efficient? You may be able to take advantage of the sustainability loan. This allows you to borrow money to invest in an energy-efficient home.

How you arrange it

You can apply for a loan when you have an offer for the energy-saving measures you want to take. You can apply via this application form. If your application is approved, you will receive an allocation letter. With this allocation letter, you will apply for your loan within 8 weeks via www.svn.nl.

What you need to know

The sustainability loan allows homeowners to invest in energy-saving measures. For example, facade, roof or floor insulation, or a solar water heater or heat pump. This way you use more sustainable energy sources, reduce your energy costs and increase living comfort. In addition, it reduces CO2 emissions in the municipality.

You can use the loan for:

  • Customized advice on measures you can take
  • Heat pump
  • Solar water heater
  • Facade insulation (cavity wall insulation)
  • Roof insulation
  • Green roofs/sedum roofs
  • Floor/ bottom insulation
  • Window insulation (high-efficiency glass)
  • Heat recovery installation
  • Led Lighting
  • DC fan
  • DC pump
  • Hybrid boiler
  • Micro cogeneration
  • Doors and wall panels insulation
  • Demand-driven ventilation
  • Water-side adjustment of the central heating system

Prerequisites:

  • Only owner-occupiers (including CoEs) and tenants can apply for loans.
  • Applying for a loan is possible from May 19, 2020 until the budget runs out. Applicants will be notified in time when the budget runs out.
  • The minimum amount you can borrow is € 2,500. The maximum amount is €10,000.
  • The term of the loan is 15 years. For amounts under €7,500, it is 10 years.
  • The loan is a construction deposit.
  • We want to avoid "stacking" loans. Therefore, the loan cannot be used together with the starter loan.
  • Early redemption can be done penalty-free from €250.
  • SVn (Stimuleringsfonds Volkshuisvesting Nederlandse gemeenten) sets the interest rate and further conditions. SVn tests the loans together with the municipality and takes care of the practical implementation for us.

Solar Panels

Sustainability Loan Soest

Written by Vincent Verloop on .

With a sustainability loan you can, under good conditions and low interest, borrow money to make your home more sustainable. You can borrow the money for energy-saving measures, such as: wall, roof and floor insulation or HR++ glass. But you can also borrow money for measures to sustainably generate energy or heat. Such as solar panels, solar collectors or a (hybrid) heat pump.

The sustainability loan can be obtained from the National Heat Fund, not with the municipality of Soest. The National Heat Fund is an initiative of the central government. The Heat Fund has existed since 2013 and is the financing instrument of energy transition in the Netherlands.

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

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.

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.
