Strømstøtte is a Norwegian government electricity subsidy that reduces household electricity costs. The government reimburses 90% of electricity costs above 0.75 NOK/kWh (excluding VAT) for employees on spot price contracts charging at their primary residence.

Without Strømstøtte reflected in the calculation, you would reimburse the full electricity cost — including the portion already covered by the government. Monta deducts the subsidy automatically so you reimburse only the net cost your employee actually paid.
