Aims/priorities: This scheme will have two elements:
- Eligible organisations can apply for the cost and delivery of an independent energy assessment. This will help identify how to reduce bills through measures such as improving or installing new energy features in the building, or changing how energy is used. This assessment will be useful to organisations whether or not they apply for the second element
- Organisations with an energy assessment may then be eligible to apply for a capital grant to support the cost of installing recommended energy efficiency measures in their premises
Who can apply? Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE) organisations
Grant amount: Capital Grants of between £2,000 and £150,000.
Application process: Check if you’re eligible for an Independent Energy Assessment or visit the Programme Guidance and Frequently Asked Questions information
