Provider: Bath and West Community Energy

Grant Value: up to £5,000

Status: Open

Summary: The BWCE Fund is an independent charity distributing grants to local community projects that reduce carbon emissions or tackle fuel poverty, funded by surplus income from BWCE’s renewable energy projects, and administered by Quartet Community Foundation.

Who can apply? Grants are available for community groups and local environmental organisations in Bath and the surrounding area. 

What will it fund? Carbon reduction does not just relate to energy projects; it might also include local food, sustainable transport or waste reduction or indeed any activity that reduces carbon emissions. Typically, the Fund receives fewer applications around addressing fuel poverty or affordable warmth – so applications in this area are particularly welcomed.
