Funding streams and partnerships
Navigate your way around the various funding options for retrofit and decarbonisation projects.
Understanding the funding landscape
Retrofit projects in the public sector are often delivered under specific national or local funding programmes. These schemes set out the eligibility criteria, technical standards, and compliance requirements for the work carried out.
At LMF, we have extensive experience delivering projects under these programmes. We ensure every installation meets the standards set by the funding body and provide the necessary evidence for successful project completion.
