KfW Program 263 is a KfW Bankengruppe hybrid financing product under the Federal Funding for Efficient Buildings framework. The captured official KfW page identifies the product as Nichtwohngebäude – Kredit and states a repayment-grant component between 5% and 35%. The company path is direct through Unternehmen, and the supported scope is renovation and purchase of efficient non-residential buildings. This is not a cash grant paid up front: the repayable credit remains a loan, while the Tilgungszuschuss is the non-dilutive portion credited against repayment after eligible work. The row is therefore included at the repayment-grant grain, with no invented euro award cap because the source facts only support percentage ranges and not a fixed per-applicant cash award.

Funds energy-efficient renovation or purchase of non-residential efficiency buildings in Germany through a KfW credit with a non-dilutive repayment-grant component.
