GroenGebouw is available to both business property owners and commercial real estate investors and offers a full service approach that includes property analysis, technical advice, assistance with financing and subsidies, installation and long-term maintenance. By combining financing with energy expertise, Eneco and Rabobank aim to lower the barriers businesses face when investing in sustainability and support the broader transition toward cleaner energy systems.

(PRESS RELEASE) ROTTERDAM, 16-Feb-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — Eneco and Rabobank have introduced a new initiative designed to help businesses improve the sustainability of their properties more easily. Through the Eneco GroenGebouw™ offering, the two organizations provide a leasing solution that enables companies to finance energy-efficient upgrades such as solar panels, heat pumps, electric vehicle charging stations and battery storage systems without requiring large upfront capital investments.

Under the arrangement, Rabobank provides the financing needed for the installation of the energy technologies supplied by Eneco. These systems are then delivered to businesses through an all-inclusive lease agreement managed by Eneco. The contract includes services such as monitoring, maintenance and operational support, allowing businesses to adopt sustainable energy solutions while preserving financial flexibility and continuing to focus on their core operations.

Selina Thurer, Chief Operating Officer for Customers at Eneco, said the GroenGebouw concept is designed to simplify the process of making commercial properties more sustainable. She noted that businesses often appreciate having a partner that can guide them through both the technical and operational aspects of energy improvements. By combining Eneco’s expertise in sustainable energy solutions with Rabobank’s financing capabilities, companies can now implement upgrades to their facilities without the need for significant upfront time or financial commitments.

The collaboration also aligns with Rabobank’s broader ambitions to support the energy transition. Robert-Paul Doove, Energy Transition Lead at Rabobank, said the bank sees helping clients reduce the environmental footprint of their properties as an important part of its cooperative mission. However, he noted that sustainability improvements can often be complicated and require substantial investments. The partnership with Eneco aims to remove some of these barriers and make it easier for businesses to move forward with energy-efficient upgrades.

Eneco offers GroenGebouw not only to companies that own their premises but also to commercial real estate investors seeking to enhance the sustainability performance of their portfolios. The service is designed as a comprehensive solution that covers the entire process of property improvement—from an initial analysis and recommendations for suitable technologies to assistance with financing and subsidy applications, followed by installation and long-term maintenance.

Businesses that adopt the solution may also benefit from direct cost savings, particularly when the installed technologies are integrated with smart energy management systems. In addition, customers receive updated recommendations each year reflecting the latest technological developments as well as evolving market conditions, regulations and energy policies.
