Birmingham is to receive £2.6m from the £12m funding pot to kick start the Green Deal in cities throughout the UK.
The figures, ranging from £600,000 to £2.6M, were awarded to seven regional cities – Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle Nottingham and Sheffield. The award followed a recent call-out to regional governments from DECC to propose early stage Green Deal pilot projects that might benefit from additional central government funding.
Birmingham is to use its fund to upgrade 10 public buildings and 120 households and create “demonstrator homes” to kick-start public interest, as well as an industrial estate retrofit and a district energy installation.
