Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme

Guidance on how to apply for the next round of applications to the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme will be published in July.

The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme provides grants for public sector bodies to fund heat decarbonisation and energy efficiency measures.

Phase 3 PSDS is aimed at taking a ‘whole building’ approach to heat decarbonisation, combining heat decarbonisation with energy efficiency measures.

Details about the next opportunity to apply (Phase 3b) will be published in July, with applications invited from September.

Under Phase 3a, Exmoor National Park Authority has been awarded £115,000 to install clean heating at Pinkery Outdoor Education Centre, which is off-grid and has no mains gas, electricity or water.

Focus of fund/fund aims:

The scheme is to upgrade public buildings with low carbon heating and energy efficiency measures including hospitals, schools, libraries, museums and leisure centres.
