Green Jobs Capital Fund To Assist Employers

28th April 2023

The Green Jobs Capital Fund supports organisations to create and retain green jobs. These are jobs focusing on the production of goods or services that benefit the environment, or that help drive more environmentally friendly processes.

The funding can be used towards most types of capital investment e.g. purchasing equipment, machinery, fixtures and fittings, IT infrastructure and electric vehicles. It can also be used towards construction, adaptation or upgrade of premises, as well as R&D projects.
