Main process
01
Qualification
We first check that the application meets the formal requirements and responds to the call for applications.
02
Professional assessment
Applications that proceed are assessed professionally according to fixed criteria. For larger applications, and otherwise when needed, external experts are also involved in the assessment.
03
Decision
The administration makes an overall assessment and presents a recommendation. The Board of The Norwegian Retailers' Environment Fund makes the final decision on grant allocation.

The assessment process may vary
Not all calls for applications are processed in exactly the same way. Some schemes have clear and objective criteria and can therefore have a simpler assessment process.
How we follow up on the funds
We follow up projects throughout the project period to ensure that the funds are used appropriately.
- We collect applications, correspondence and follow-up in the same system
- Projects that receive funding must report on progress, results and use of the funds
- We set requirements for accounts, documentation and controls to follow up that the funds are used as agreed.
