Funding for Energy Saving Projects

It’s all very well having great ideas on insulating your church, or getting a new boiler for the church hall, but these things cost money.

The Energy Saving Trust has a list of organisations that giving funding to energy saving projects here. Some of these projects are for domestic buildings and others are for charities.

EDF Energy has a Green Fund that has awarded £4.6m to 260 community projects across the UK since 2001, including a recent £27,000 grant to a church in Teesside to install solar panels on its roof. They awards grants to organisations to help cover the cost of renewable energy technology that can be used to produce green energy from the sun, wind, water, wood and other renewable sources.
