The NVIDIA compiler are freely available on Linux machines. You can download Fortran,C, C++ compiler and debugger from:

NVIDIA HPC Software Development Kit (SDK)

Once you downloaded and installed the NVIDIA compiler do not forget to set the correct PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables.
If you want to use NVIDIA compiler in parallel you need to recompile openmpi or mpich with this compiler.

Then you can configure Yambo with the command: 

./configure FC=nvfortran F77=nvfortran  CC=nvc CPP="gcc -E -P" FPP="gfortran -E -P -cpp" \
--enable-open-mp --enable-par-linalg --enable-hdf5-par-io --enable-slepc-linalg

Configure NVfortran with a CUDA graphic card

If you have an installed CUDA GPU on your machine you can compile Yambo to use it, by adding the flag --enable-cuda="cuda-version,card-version"
