Renewable Heating Grants For Business

Almost £5 billion of funding is available to help UK businesses become greener as part of the government’s commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050. We recommedn the following Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy resource page for updates on current funding:

Start by searching the GOV.UK business finance and support finder.
There are various Government schemes which offer loans, grants or subsidised energy-saving measures to support businesses with reducing environmental impact. These normally help with:

• energy efficiency measures – such as revising production processes
• the upfront costs of investing in energy-efficient equipment
• waste management and reduction initiatives
• sustainable development initiatives.

Ask your local council if they provide energy efficiency funding or sustainable business growth grants. Some initiatives may also be eligible for UK Research and Innovation Business Innovation Funding. Alternatively see if you can get paid to generate your own renewable power and heat through the national Smart Export Guarantee scheme.

Energy companies may offer small business energy-efficiency schemes or grants. Eligibility criteria and availability will vary, depending on things like:
