The Government is expected to directly spend approximately £1.3billion on low carbon innovation (research, development and demonstration) in this spending review period (2011-15). This support is coordinated through the Low Carbon Innovation Coordination Group1 (LCICG).

Support beyond the end of this financial year is dependent on the outcome of the Spending Review.
