Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, how much funding was allocated from the Energy Transformation Fund (a) in total and (b) to projects in Scotland in each year of its operation.

The £289m Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF) supports industrial sites located in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. To date, the Government has allocated funding across five competitive application windows. Allocations by financial year are as follows:

2020-2021, £22m

2021-2022, £26.2m

2022-2023, £119.6m

These figures do not include funding for projects that have chosen to withdraw from the programme. Further IETF allocations will be made once funding decisions for the final window of Phase 2 have concluded in Summer this year.

Scottish sites are supported by the Scottish IETF. The £34m SIETF budget is administered by the Scottish Government, and we do not hold the data on annual allocations.
