Community organisations in England can apply for a share of £250,000 of funding to reduce energy usage and carbon footprint.  The funding is being made available through the Energy Efficiency Sharematch fund. It can be used to install on-site energy generation measures. This could include solar panels and heat pumps, improve building energy efficiency through insulation and LED lighting. As well as upgrading operational equipment to more energy-efficient alternatives.

Eligible applicants include Co-operative Societies, Community Benefit Societies, and Charitable Community Benefit Societies based in England.

The application process requires an initial expression of interest. This is them followed by a formal application through the Crowdfunder platform for eligible projects. The fund’s closing date for applications is set for March 2025, and the goal is to allocate all funds before this deadline.
