Decarbonisation Grants
The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) has opened applications for Phase 3 of its Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF). Aiming to support the development and deployment of technologies that enable energy intensive businesses to transition towards a low carbon future, the programme has committed a total of £500m in grants for UK businesses, with £185m set to be spread across two windows in 2024 alone.
Companies have until Friday 19 April to apply for funding across three distinct areas: feasibility and engineering studies to investigate the viability of energy efficiency and decarbonisation projects; programmes to deploy technologies with the aim of reducing industrial energy consumption; and investment in technologies to achieve widespread emissions savings.
The competition, which is open to businesses of any size with an eligible site in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, will open two application windows in 2024.
