Current Funding Opportunities

New Funding Announcements

The Victorian Government boosted ETIS funding by $41 million in the 2011-12 Victorian State Budget, bringing total funding  to $82 million.

The Low Emission Energy Technology Program will provide funding for renewable energy plants and low emission technology projects.

Further details regarding eligibility for the grant funding will be made available during 2011-12.

In August 2010 the Government allocated $30 million to sustainable energy research and development and pilot demonstration projects.

This $30 million is divided into two separate grant programs (each program with up to a maximum of $5 million per project):

• a $10 million Request For Proposals for the Sustainable Energy Research & Development (SERD2) program; and
• a $20 million Expressions of Interest for the Sustainable Energy Pilot Demonstration (SEPD) program.

The aim of both SERD 2 and SEPD programs is to facilitate the further development of sustainable energy technologies relevant to Victoria, and to allow the State to benefit from existing national and international investment in the most relevant and applicable sustainable energy technologies.

The Request for Proposals for the SERD2 program closed on 30 September 2010, and seven successful applicants are listed below.
