Re-Tooling for Climate Change program
Information seminars and call for round 1 applications
AusIndustry will be hosting a series of national seminars in September to provide information about applying for the Re-Tooling for Climate Change program.
Grants ranging from $10,000 to $500,000 are available for up to one-third of project costs and applications for round one of the program close on Monday 20 October 2008.
Re-Tooling for Climate Change is a competitive, merit-based grants program that aims to assist small and medium-sized Australian manufacturers reduce their environment footprint, through projects that improve the energy and/or water efficiency of their production processes, such as:
- investing in small-scale cogeneration plants that capture waste energy and use it to produce electricity on site
- stormwater capture and improving water recycling for re-use in the manufacturing process
- improving insulation and recovering waste heat to improve manufacturing process efficiency
- process re-engineering, involving the adoption of energy-efficient manufacturing tools that substantially reduce the energy used in the production process.
