Solar Energy Loan by FNB: Financing the Eco-Friendly Solution for South African Homes

South Africa is no stranger to power outages, with loadshedding becoming an all-too-familiar occurrence in recent years. The good news is that solar energy provides an eco-friendly and efficient solution to the problem. Not only does it reduce your carbon footprint and save costs on energy bills, but it can also increase your property's resale value. That's why many South African households are embracing solar energy, and the FirstRand Group (FNB) is at the forefront of financing this solution with their Solar Energy Loan.

 

How does the FNB Solar Energy Loan work?

The FNB Solar Energy Loan is designed to finance the installation of a renewable energy system with added value such as discounts of up to 20% on solar solutions from approved providers (LTM Energy, Erinite Energy, Averge Technologies or Ingwe Projects & Consulting).


Here's how it works:

  1. Apply for a solar energy loan to be added to your MortgageMarket home loan application.
  2. FNB values property higher to cater for the installation & purchase of solar energy systems and will register a higher mortgage bond.
  3. Must purchase renewable energy solutions from an approved FNB-preferred supplier list to qualify for the loan.


To apply for the Solar Energy Loan, you'll need to provide an invoice or quote from an FNB-approved renewable energy solution provider, as well as approval from trustees of the body corporate or managing agent if the sectional title.

Terms and conditions apply.

Refer to the detailed terms and conditions on the FNB  website for more information. 

In conclusion, the FNB Solar Energy Loan is a great option for South Africans looking to finance the installation of a renewable energy system. With eco-friendly benefits and potential cost savings, solar energy is an investment in your home and your future.
