Support and Deductions Property Companies Often Miss
Support for charging infrastructure, green loans, and energy mapping – property companies have several opportunities that are rarely fully utilised. Here are the most important ones.
Underutilised Support in Property Portfolios
Property companies continuously invest in energy-related measures – but many miss out on support that could have financed part of the investment. The reason is usually not unwillingness but lack of time.
Important to Know First
"Green deduction" and ROT/RUT are tax reductions for private individuals. A limited company, a housing cooperative, or a municipal property manager cannot use these. For legal entities, it concerns investment support and favourable loan conditions instead.
Support and Programmes to Check
- Support for charging infrastructure (Naturvårdsverket / Klimatklivet). Grants for charging stations for tenants and employees. Must be applied for before installation begins.
- Klimatklivet (Climate Leap) in general. Investment support for measures that reduce emissions – energy recovery, conversion to heat pumps, energy efficiency.
- Green loans from banks. Favourable interest terms for properties that meet high energy performance class or have environmental certification (BREEAM, LEED, Miljöbyggnad).
- EU funding via ELENA. For larger energy investment programmes across multiple properties.
- The energy performance certificate as a tool. Not support in itself, but often a prerequisite for applying for other support and for qualifying for green loans.
What You Can Do First
- Inventory planned investments for the next 24 months.
- Cross-reference each investment with Naturvårdsverket's current support programmes.
- Ask your bank for a green-loan assessment of the portfolio.
- Ensure that energy performance certificates are updated.

Tip: Support is often time-limited and budget-bound. When the funds for the year are depleted, the application closes – plan long-term and apply early.
