Grant Funding Available to Support Local Bioenergy Projects - Deadline Aug. 26


  Monday 8th August, 2022

Did you know there is a $10 million fund in Victoria to support bioenergy projects?

The Waste to Energy Fund through Sustainability Victoria will support projects big and small that create bioenergy from organic waste, the output of which may be electricity, heat, gas or liquid fuels.

Funding is also available to develop end uses for the residual products created by the treatment process.

Industries that are encouraged to apply include:

  • agricultural and livestock
  • forestry
  • food production
  • food retail
  • wastewater management.

The deadline for applications is 11:59 pm on 26 August 2022.
All the info you need is at Sustainability Victoria's website.

The program will support organisations to dispose of waste in an environmentally friendly way while reducing their operational costs, including energy bills.

Projects will process waste that would have otherwise gone to landfill, or been disposed of in a way that does not leverage its value as an energy source, such as crop residue burning.
