How it works

5 steps to window funding

  1. 1

    Involve an energy efficiency expert (EEE)

    BEG funding requires a registered energy efficiency expert (EEE). We coordinate the right EEE for your project.

  2. 2

    File the application BEFORE awarding the contract

    The BAFA application must be filed before you award the contract – otherwise funding is lost. Together with the EEE we ensure the correct order.

  3. 3

    Choose eligible windows (Uw ≤ 0.95)

    Only windows with a U-value of at most 0.95 W/(m²K) are eligible. We advise on suitable PVC, aluminium or wood-aluminium models.

  4. 4

    Professional RAL-compliant installation

    Professional installation also counts as an eligible cost. We fit to RAL standard – all from one source, including disposal of the old windows.

  5. 5

    Submit proof & receive payment

    After completion you submit the proof; BAFA pays out the subsidy. We provide all the documents needed for the installation.

Why window funding in Hildesheim is especially worthwhile

Around Hildesheim, a broad belt of detached single-family homes from the 1960s to 1990s shapes the picture - in communities such as Harsum and Giesen there are countless houses whose windows are now energetically outdated. Added to this is the Gründerzeit building stock on the Moritzberg with its often still single-glazed period windows. It is precisely this mix of single-family-home stock and period buildings that makes BAFA window funding in Hildesheim particularly worthwhile: where old windows sit, the saving potential - and thus the eligible leverage - is greatest. VL-Innovativbau guides you through the entire funding process: we coordinate the mandatory energy efficiency expert, secure the right application timing (application before the contract is awarded) and implement your new windows with a Uw value ≤ 0.95 professionally in line with RAL standards. This way you extract the maximum grant while also gaining thermal insulation and sound insulation - subject to funding approval.

Frequently asked questions about funding

You receive a 15% BAFA grant, and up to 20% with an iSFP (individual renovation roadmap) on the eligible costs (up to €30,000, with iSFP up to €60,000). One condition is, among others, a Uw value ≤ 0.95 - all subject to funding approval.

Yes. The BAFA federal subsidy applies nationwide to eligible residential buildings - including the single-family-home stock from the 1960s to 1990s in the Hildesheim district. It is important that the requirements (including a Uw value ≤ 0.95, application before the contract is awarded, EEE) are met.

We take the organisational funding process off your hands: we coordinate the mandatory energy efficiency expert, ensure the correct application timing and align the measure accordingly. We do not provide our own legal or tax advice; the funding approval is made by BAFA.
