VCSE – Energy Effeciency Scheme

Free Independent Energy Assessments for VCSEs

The VCSE Energy Efficiency Scheme is now open.

Funded as 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, the scheme will help voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations in England improve their energy efficiency.

As of today, VCSEs have the chance to apply for a free Independent Energy Assessment (IEA).

If youÂ’re successful in your application, one of the team of independent energy assessors will work with you to identify energy-saving opportunities in your building. TheyÂ’ll provide you with an IEA – a comprehensive evaluation of your building’s energy usage, efficiency and potential for energy savings.

Applicant organisations must be a VCSE based in England delivering frontline services. They must be able to demonstrate that they are financially sustainable, require support around energy and are, own or have a long-term tenancy in their premises and not be suitable for blended finance or loan support through other schemes.
