Frequently asked questions about KfW EH 55 funding in 2026

When does KfW funding for Efficiency House 55 end?
KfW funding for Efficiency House 55 (EH 55) under the “Climate-friendly new build” programme formally ends after 30 June 2026. The decisive date is when KfW receives the application. Funding is also subject to the availability of funds: the programme ends early as soon as the €800 million fund has been fully allocated.
How much is KfW EH 55 funding in 2026?
Funding takes the form of a subsidised loan of up to €100,000 per residential unit (KfW programme 296 “Climate-friendly new build”). The effective annual interest rate depends on the term and in 2026 is substantially below the open-market rate (from approximately 1% p.a., as of 2026). KfW publishes the binding daily terms directly.
What are the requirements for KfW EH 55 funding?
The project must already have planning permission but must not yet have started. No supply, service or purchase contracts may have been signed before the application. The application is submitted to KfW through the financing bank before the project begins. An energy-efficiency expert verifies compliance with EH 55.
Why should I act now?
Because funds are strictly limited, they are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. With only €800 million available and a fixed deadline of 30 June 2026, funding may end early at any time. Anyone planning to build should therefore clarify the provider and financing early enough to submit the application on time.
Do prefabricated houses meet the EH 55 standard?
Yes. Many prefabricated-house providers meet Efficiency House 55 as standard, and numerous providers even meet the higher EH 40 level. Our free comparison helps you find eligible providers and obtain the documents needed to prepare the KfW application before 30 June 2026.
