Infrakredit Energy

Infrakredit Energy is aimed at Bavarian municipalities and municipal institutions planning investments to reduce energy consumption or convert to renewable energy sources. The goal is to make municipal infrastructure sustainable and contribute to climate protection. Specific municipal bodies and their enterprises are eligible to apply.

Infrakredit Energy promotes investments in municipal infrastructure aimed at energy saving or conversion to renewable energies. Certain projects and costs are excluded from funding to ensure targeted and state-aid compliant allocation of funds.

Infrakredit Energy offers interest-subsidized loans with variable financing shares and flexible terms to support municipal investments. The maximum loan amount is limited, as are the annual commitments from the refinancing KfW program.

To receive funding through Infrakredit Energy, certain conditions must be met, particularly regarding the start of the project, proof of energy efficiency, and compliance with state aid regulations. There are also restrictions regarding the total sum of loan commitments and cumulation with other funding programs.

The application for Infrakredit Energy is submitted directly to LfA Förderbank Bayern and requires the submission of specific documents. The process includes application submission before project start, review by LfA, and the subsequent possibility of loan disbursement after all requirements are met.

The Infrakredit Energy funding program is based on specific guidelines of LfA Förderbank Bayern and is financed through refinancing from a KfW program and from budget funds of the Free State of Bavaria. Compliance with various national and European laws and guidelines is crucial for the implementation of the program.
