How to apply for an Environmental loan

Step by step

You can apply for support for your initiatives through Enova, but here’s how you can get an Environmental loan from us.

  • Click on the form that applies to you, “I have a home mortgage with DNB” or “I don’t have a home mortgage with DNB”.

  • Fill out the form.

    For new customers, you’ll have a choice whether to move your main loan at another bank to us and take the Environmental loan. If you answer Yes to that, you will get the discounted interest rate on the environmental loan.

  • After the form is received, an adviser will contact you.

  • After the adviser has been in contact with you, you will receive a text message in which you will confirm information about income and debt with your BankID.

  • As documentation, you must submit a valid offer from an approved professional for the measure to be implemented. When the installation is finished, you send the invoice to the adviser, so that we pay the loan directly to the provider.
