Str\u00f8mst\u00f8tte is a Norwegian government electricity subsidy that reduces your household electricity cost. Monta automatically applies this subsidy when calculating your home charging reimbursement, ensuring your reimbursement reflects your actual charging costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Str\u00f8mst\u00f8tte<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Norwegian government reimburses 90% of electricity costs above 0.75 NOK\/kWh (excluding VAT). This applies to spot price electricity contracts. Str\u00f8mst\u00f8tte only applies at your primary residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you charge at home, Monta deducts the Str\u00f8mst\u00f8tte amount (if applicable) before calculating what your employer owes you. Your employer pays the net cost after the subsidy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Str\u00f8mst\u00f8tte does not apply to fixed kWh price electricity contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
