Support for home-energy improvements

Dutch ISDE subsidy explained in English

The Dutch ISDE scheme can support eligible heat pumps, solar water heaters, insulation measures and certain other improvements. Eligibility and the amount depend on the measure, product code, installation and application conditions.

A sensible first check

What ISDE can cover

ISDE is a national Dutch incentive with different conditions per measure. A heat pump or solar water heater normally needs to appear on the relevant official list and meet technical requirements.

The amount is product-specific

Do not rely only on a generic percentage or headline amount. The exact model, output and official code can determine the indication.

Official information remains decisive

Dutch Buddy can explain and estimate, but the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) publishes the current conditions and makes decisions on applications.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you decide.

Can Dutch Buddy apply for ISDE for me?

No. Dutch Buddy provides guidance; the applicant remains responsible for checking and submitting the application.

Is a home battery covered by ISDE?

A standard home battery is not generally an ISDE measure. Check current official rules for any other applicable arrangement.

Can expats apply?

Eligibility depends on the property, measure and scheme conditions, not on the language used for guidance. Verify your specific status with the official authority.

Your next step

Calculate first. Decide afterwards.

The result is an indication. You choose whether to continue and share contact details.
