Changes to Heat Pump Subsidies
Starting in January 2025, the subsidy amount for heat pumps with a capacity of up to 12 kW will change.
- The initial grant amount will be reduced from €2,100 to €1,250
- The surcharge per kW of capacity will increase from €150 to €225
- The bonus for heat pumps with an A+++ energy rating will be reduced from €225 to €200
A transitional arrangement applies to heat pumps purchased in 2024 but not installed until 2025. This means you can take advantage of the higher subsidies in effect in 2024. All you need is valid proof of purchase. This proof can be: a copy of the order or order confirmation from 2024, a digitally signed quote, or a digital written confirmation from the installation company.
How much funding can you receive?
A heat pump remains a smart choice
Although the ISDE subsidy is being reduced, investing in a heat pump remains an attractive option. With a hybrid heat pump, you can reduce your gas consumption by up to 70%. This leads to significant savings on your energy bill and often allows you to recoup your investment within five to seven years.
Want to apply for a grant for your heat pump?
Would you like to take advantage of the ISDE grant? You can easily submit an application through the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) by following this step-by-step guide:
1. Check the RVO’s list of eligible models
Find out which heat pumps are eligible for the subsidy before making a purchase.
2. Have the heat pump installed by a certified installer
Choose a certified company that can help you with this. Ask the installer to include the heat pump's registration code on the invoice. This code is essential for the subsidy application.
3. Gather all the necessary documents
Keep a copy of the invoice, the proof of payment, and, if necessary, the heat pump's technical documentation.
4. Submit your application to the RVO
Visit the RVO website, log in with your DigiD, and search for “ISDE heat pump subsidy.” Follow the instructions and submit your application within 24 months of installation.
