Low Carbon Building Program
The DTI's Low carbon building program will provide
grants for microgeneration technologies for householders, community organisations,
schools, the public sector and businesses.
Microgeneration is the stand alone generation of low
carbon heat and/or electricity. One of the technologies covered is our Solar
thermal hot water systems.
The program will run over three years, starting 1st
April 2006 and replaces DTI's Clear Skies program. The program is UK wide
and will demonstrate how energy efficiency and microgeneration will work
hand in hand to create low carbon buildings.
There will is two streams of grants available:
 | Stream one - this
applies to smaller projects for home owners, community groups and small
to medium enterprise. |
 | Stream two - this applies to larger projects
which include larger businesses, community organisations and the
public sector. |

Stream 1 - Individual householders and small businesses.
 | Maximum £400 regardless of size subject to an
overall 30% limit (exclusive of VAT). |
Stream 1 - Community

is currently set at a maximum of £50,000. These grants will be
awarded competitively. |
