Electricity North West is offering £100,000 in funding through its Powering Our Communities programme.
This initiative, now in its seventh year, supports local energy projects by providing early-stage funding to help with planning, engagement and feasibility studies.
The programme has already allocated nearly £500,000 to various community projects across the region.
Groups and organisations interested in applying for a share of this year’s £100,000 should submit their applications by Friday 26th July.
Helen Seagrave, Electricity North West’s Community Energy Manager, said: “The applications that have already been submitted are an incredibly diverse range and I think that highlights how community energy is growing and people recognising the huge benefits.
“More people want to tackle climate change whilst getting a community benefit and making a difference.”
