London Community Energy Fund is now open!
23-Aug-2018
The Mayor of London wants to see more communities involved in producing energy locally and helping to reduce energy use: To get more community projects off the ground, he created the London Community Energy Fund (LCEF) in 2017. This has helped to develop eleven new solar projects across London!
City Hall have just announced the second phase of the London Community Energy Fund is now live – with an even broader remit than before! The LCEF 2018/19 will again offer grants of up to £15,000. This can be used to support the development stages of a wide range of community energy projects, including both clean generation and energy demand reduction. Funding could be used, for example, to carry out preliminary viability studies or develop a financial business case.
The deadline for applications is 2nd November at 5pm.

Community Energy London is holding a workshop to help people better understand the application process – as well as to have questions answered by the fund delivery team at the GLA –
