The IETF supports businesses with high energy use to transition to a low carbon future, and to cut their bills and emissions through increased energy efficiency and decarbonisation. It is a crucial part of the Government’s strategy for tackling climate change and reaching Net Zero by 2050. It complements other government programmes that offer innovation and early demonstration support, such as the Industrial Energy Efficiency Accelerator and Industrial Hydrogen Accelerator (part of the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio) and will help to transform an important part of the UK economy.

The £70 million competition window for England, Wales and Northern Ireland opens on Monday 10 October 2022 and runs until Friday 17 February 2023 (note extended deadline!). It will be available in the form of a grant scheme and will fund:

  • Feasibility and engineering studies for potential deployment projects that will deliver energy efficiency or decarbonisation benefits if implemented, enabling decision-makers to make informed investment choices
  • Deployment of mature energy efficiency technologies that improve industrial energy efficiency and reduce energy demand (TRL 8-9)
  • Deployment of deep decarbonisation technologies that reduce carbon emissions associated with the industrial process (TRL 7-9)

Please note, in this application window, the IETF will also support projects that improve the energy efficiency and/or reduce emissions of non-road mobile machinery (NRMM). The machinery must be necessary to, and a part of, the industrial process located within the boundary of the eligible site. More information can be found in the applicant guidance.
