This new funding will help voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations in England improve their energy efficiency.
The VCSE Energy Efficiency Scheme is part of a package of over £100 million of support being delivered by the Government to help frontline delivery organisations with the increased cost of living.
To apply for an independent energy assessment, organisations must:
- be based and operating in England
- be a VCSE organisation, with charitable, benevolent or philanthropic purposes
- be delivering frontline services or operating a hub that delivers multiple frontline services
- be able to evidence the need for energy efficiency support
- be able to evidence that they are financially sustainable
- not be suitable for blended finance or loan support through other energy focused schemes
