Last chance to apply for green grant
UK fleet operators only have to the end of the month to apply for funding towards the installation of charging points or refuelling facilities for alternative fuelled vehicles.
The Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Grant Programme (IGP) offers companies cash towards refuelling infrastructure for low carbon vehicles, such as electric vehicles, hydrogen or natural gas or biogas.
As part of the UK Government’s strategy to decrease carbon emissions from road transport, grants are available to encourage organisations to install refuelling or recharging stations to enable the use of greener vehicles. For fleet operators the cost of installing refuelling or recharging infrastructure represents a barrier to switching fuel use.
The deadline for applications for the first funding window is 30th September 2009. However submissions received after September 30, will be carried forward into the next funding window, which closes December 9, 2009.
The IGP funded by the Department for Transport (DfT)is administered by Cenex, the centre for low carbon technologies.
