Strømstøtte is a Norwegian government electricity subsidy that reduces household electricity costs. Monta automatically applies this subsidy when calculating your home charging reimbursement, so your employer only reimburses your net electricity cost after the subsidy.

What is Strømstøtte?

The Norwegian government reimburses 90% of electricity costs above 0.75 NOK/kWh (excluding VAT). This applies to spot price electricity contracts and only at your primary residence.

Strømstøtte does not apply to fixed kWh electricity contracts.

Request reimbursement

Step 1 — Select your contract type

1. Open the Monta app.
2. Go to Reimbursements.
3. Tap Provide electricity costs.
4. Under What type of electricity contract do you have?, select Spot price.
5. Tap Next.

Your price zone (NO1–NO5) is automatically detected from your charge point's address.

Step 2 — Set up Strømstøtte

1. On the Strømstøtte screen, review the toggle Should Strømstøtte be applied?
2. Leave the toggle on if you are on a spot price contract at your primary residence.
3. Turn the toggle off if this charge point is not at your primary residence.
4. Tap Next.

Step 3 — Add additional costs (optional)

If your electricity agreement includes additional charges such as grid tariffs, you can add them here so your reimbursement reflects the full cost. Follow the on-screen prompts and tap Next when done.

Step 4 — Review and submit

Review your electricity cost summary and tap Send Request. Your employer will receive the request and must approve it before reimbursements begin.
