- Carbon Emissions Reduction Fund is targeted at projects that can help domestic energy consumers participate in the just transition to Net Zero CO2 emissions. The fund awards grants between £50,000 and £500,000.
Graham Ayling, senior project manager at the Energy Redress Scheme has commented:
"COP26 will come to the UK in the autumn and we hope that the Carbon Emissions Reduction Fund under Round 12 of Energy Redress will provide the opportunity for more charities to demonstrate how everyone can play their part in the transition to net zero CO2. Its also an opportunity to fund projects that work to ensure that no one is left behind by the changes coming to our energy system and everyone can heat and power their homes regardless of their income, background or health.”
Only charities that are registered with the Energy Redress Scheme and have passed the due diligence process can apply. Further information on the scheme priorities and the application process can be found here.
