Do you know anyone running a business in the food and beverage manufacturing industry?
The government has opened a new grant to help food and beverage manufacturers improve their energy efficiency, by giving eligible businesses between $10,000 and $25,000.
This grant is exceptionally helpful because it’s paid up-front, with no co-payment requirement.
If you’re eligible you’d be mad not to apply for the full $25,000 in funding to do things like:
- An energy audit of your site or part of your site
- Purchase or hire of equipment to measure, monitor and record energy use or to monitor a process, where this facilitates optimisation or energy management
- Purchase of equipment to replace existing equipment, where the new equipment is higher efficiency
- Costs to decommission, remove and dispose of the old equipment
- Purchase of equipment or components to help an existing system run more efficiently
- Design, and reasonable installation costs of eligible equipment
- Commissioning or tuning of equipment installed or modified as part of the project, and any related equipment that is affected by the project
- Building permits or approval costs to install equipment, where required
Applications opened on 12 January 2022 and close on 18 February 2022.
