The fund is available to community-led energy projects across two stages:
- Feasibility Grant: Intended for projects that are at an early phase of exploring the possibility of a renewable energy project, and which meet the Fund’s eligibility criteria.
- Development Grant: Intended for projects that demonstrate a good chance of securing planning permission and being implemented.
Funding rate:
Up to £40k funding for feasibility grants or up to £100k for development grants.
Deadline:
Rolling deadlines throughout 2021.
