Key features

The Commonwealth Bank Unsecured Green Personal Loan could be a great option for people looking to make some environmentally friendly additions to their lives and their homes. These can be used on solar panels, electric vehicles, battery packs, electric vehicle charging stations, solar hot water systems, and more.

Eligible sustainable purchases can score an interest rate starting from 7.50% p.a. (8.90% p.a. comparison rate*).

Loans can range from $4,000 - $50,000 and can be taken out for terms between 1-7 years with a flexible repayment schedule - weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. There is an upfront establishment fee of $250 and a monthly $15 service fee to keep in mind, so be prepared to pay those out of pocket.

You can make free additional repayments to this loan, but remember, if you opt for a fixed loan you will not have a redraw facility (variable loans do allow for redraw). There is also a $20 late payment fee, so remember to get your direct debit set up!

To qualify for the green discount you must use your loan buy or install eligible products including:

  • Electric or hybrid cars emitting less than 120g CO2 emissions per kilometre (check your car’s emission data on the Green Vehicle Guide)
  • Solar panels with a system size equal to or greater than 6 kilowatts (kW) (and inverter if applicable)
  • Battery packs with a system size equal to or greater than 5 kilowatts-hour (kWh)
  • Solar hot water system with a system size equal to or greater than 250 litres (L)
  • Heat pump hot water system with a system size equal to or greater than 250 litres (L)

Any catches

Make sure to check that your planned purchase meets CommBank’s eligibility criteria in terms of size and energy output, as all purchases are subject to their own terms and conditions. Any solar panels, inverters, and battery packs will need to be installed by a Clean Energy Council approved retailer or installer in order to be approved.
