Energy Generation Growth Fund spend: FOI release
Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.
Information requested
How much of the £1.5 million Community Energy Generation Growth Fund announced by the government last year has been spent or given out, and can you supply a breakdown of what the money was spent on?
Response
I have enclosed the requested information at Annex A, which sets out total spend from the Community Energy Generation Growth Fund in 24/25 at the time of your request. This document also outlines which projects the money from this fund was spent on.
As detailed in Annex A, projected spend in 24/25 is lower than initially offered as some projects have been unable to complete work prior to the end of the current CARES contract, which ends on 31 March 2025, and figures are subject to change until the end of this financial year.
