Carbon Trust Collaboration

All Regional Development Agencies are collaborating with the Carbon Trust on grant proposals that may significantly reduce carbon footprint.  In such cases, where the proposed technology has the potential for significant CO2 reduction and the grant may exceed £50,000, applicants should complete a Carbon Trust initial proposal and submit to Finance South East.

FSE will forward your initial proposal to the Carbon Trust for review under their Applied Research scheme.  If suitable, a full application will be invited.  If not considered as suitable, the proposal will be reviewed under Grant for Research & Development. 

The Trust’s initial proposal form and guidance notes are available from the links below.  Completed forms should be submitted to BusinessGrants@financesoutheast.com.
