The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) promotes measures to increase energy efficiency.
You can apply for funding for specialist planning and construction supervision for:

• the new construction or renovation of your residential building into a KfW Efficiency House,
• the energy-efficient refurbishment of your residential building with individual measures.

You can receive a grant of up to EUR 4,000 for the following measures:

• Services for specialist energy planning,
• Support with the invitation to tender and evaluation of offers,
• Construction supervision and monitoring of energy-related construction work by an energy efficiency expert,
• Acceptance and evaluation of the measures,
• Preparation of sustainability certificates.

You will not receive funding

• if you are not financing your new build or refurbishment with a loan or grant from the Energy Efficient Construction (153) or Energy Efficient Refurbishment (151/152, 430) programs of the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW),
• if your energy efficiency expert is not economically independent, for example because he is the owner or employee of the construction company you have commissioned,
• if you have already started the construction work before you have submitted the application.

You will receive up to 50 percent of the eligible costs, up to a maximum of 4,000 euros, for the energy efficiency expert as a grant.

You will receive the grant when you have completed your measure. To do this, you must prove that you have implemented the measures planned by the energy efficiency expert.
You must keep all invoices and receipts relating to the subsidized services.

Applications for funding are processed by the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW).

You have no claim to the approval of the subsidy.
