Renewable energy and low carbon technology funding
The MCS Charitable Foundation is open to funding a range of projects that advance our mission to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy and low carbon technologies.
-
Funding should usually be for specific time-bound projects that accelerate the adoption of renewable energy and low carbon technologies with a specific focus on scaling up the delivery of whole house retrofit. For the avoidance of doubt, retrofit means fabric and renewable technologies. Projects should have a UK-wide impact, either through having a national reach or through developing/demonstrating an innovative approach that could be replicated, adapted or scaled up. As a UK-wide Foundation, bids specific to the context in the devolved nations and regions are welcome.
-
Bids should fall into one of the following themes:
-
Business case development, strategy planning and/or implementation of local and wider area whole house retrofit schemes.
-
Whole house retrofit supply chain development.
-
Skills development and CPD.
-
Community engagement.
-
-
Bids should also meet at least one of the following criteria:
-
Seed funding for innovative initiatives.
-
Support delivery of a proof of concept.
-
Research to support innovation.
-
Capacity building in one of the themed areas.
-
Sharing good practice.
