Phase 1 of the programme is managed by the Energy Saving Trust
Phase 2 of the programme is managed by
BRE.
Launched on 1 April 2006, this is a three year programme and
replaces DTI's Clear Skies initiative, which has now ceased. The
programme covers the whole of mainland UK and its focus is to
encourage energy efficiency and micro-generation by promoting low
carbon buildings, this includes the use of bioenergy.
Two streams of grants available:
Stream 1 - these grants
apply to smaller projects for home owners. See the
Low carbon buildings programme website for more information.
Stream 2 - for medium and
large scale micro-generation projects, available to the public,
non-profit and commercial organisations. See
Low carbon buildings programme phase 2 website
