More about the energy label

Your energy label

An energy label indicates the energy efficiency of a home. A home with energy label A (or higher) is very energy efficient, while a home with energy label G is less energy efficient. An energy-efficient home often means lower energy costs, increased comfort and lower CO2 emissions. An energy label is valid for 10 years. After 10 years, you must register your energy label again. Via Milieu Centraal, you can easily see what your current energy label is and how long it is valid.

Registering your energy label

Not all homes have a valid registered energy label. You will receive a valid registered energy label when buying a home. You can also have your energy label registered by an energy adviser. The energy adviser will visit to inspect your home and will then carry out an energy performance calculation. You will then receive a valid registered energy label.

Good to know about the sustainability discount

Who is it for?

You are eligible for the sustainability discount if you have a home with a registered energy label A or B at the start of a new interest rate contract, or if you have an energy label A or B registered with the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland, RVO) within 24 months of the start of the fixed-rate period. The discount is valid for a Woning Hypotheek mortgage, a Budget Hypotheek mortgage and a mortgage with the Dutch National Mortgage Guarantee (Nationale Hypotheek Garantie, NHG) if the (new) fixed-rate period started on or after 1 August 2021. 

You will automatically receive the interest rate discount from the first day of the month following the date the label is registered. Please note: it can take up to five working days before the energy label is registered. We will inform you in writing as soon as we have accepted the discount application. The discount will subsequently be valid until the end of the chosen fixed-rate period.

Period

You are entitled to the discount throughout the entire fixed-rate period. The sustainability discount applies to all fixed-rate periods (between 1 and 30 years). The continued validity of the sustainability discount will be determined at the start of each new fixed-rate period. This means you may receive a higher or lower discount at the start of the following fixed-rate period, or even no discount at all.
