NAB has given out $2b in new green business loans

Demand has surged from businesses related to energy, EVs, property, and agriculture.

National Australia Bank (NAB) has delivered over $2b in new green business loans, according to an update on 6 October 2025.

The amount is part of its broader $80b FY2024-30 environmental financing commitment.

This new lending has reportedly supported a surge in demand from businesses across sectors investing in energy-efficient equipment, electric vehicles, sustainable farming projects, and commercial property upgrades, according to NAB.

Green lending to the commercial real estate (CRE) sector accounted for the largest share of NAB’s new green financing portfolio in 2025.

NAB had launched the NAB Green Finance for CRE in 2024, which supports investment in eligible green buildings and retrofit projects.
