Carbon Trust 0% Loans

Carbon Trust 0% Loans

£50 million in interest free loans to help the public sector save energy – available for a limited period only.

Following the April 2009 Budget the Government, in partnership with the Carbon Trust, will provide £51.5 million in new interest free loans to help public sector bodies take advantage of energy efficient technology. These loans will not require match funding and are offered on a first come first served basis.

Amongst others schools, hospitals, local authorities, universities and central government departments will be able to save money and reduce their carbon emissions by taking up the new loans, which the Carbon Trust has made available through Salix Finance.

These loans are additional to funding available through the existing Salix Finance scheme and are available for around 80 different energy efficiency technologies, including building insulation, boiler and lighting upgrades, improved cooling systems and IT energy efficiency improvements.

To be eligible projects must payback over a maximum 5 year period and the loan value must not exceed £100 per tonne of carbon saved over the equipment's lifetime.
