Clean Energy Funding in Yorkshire: What £2.5 Million Means for Local Businesses
Clean energy funding is moving from ambition to action in Yorkshire. Thanks to over £2.5 million in new government funding, businesses and communities across the region now have the chance to rethink their approach to energy costs and sustainability.
For Yorkshire’s industry, markets, leisure centres and the organisations that power them, this is a catalyst for a greener, more resilient future.
Why Yorkshire’s New Clean Energy Funding Matters
Energy bills are a challenge for every organisation. With fresh funding transforming public spaces from Ripon to Rotherham and Ossett, the message is clear: clean energy is becoming essential infrastructure across Yorkshire. These investments demonstrate what’s possible, reducing costs where it matters most and laying the groundwork for a strong, net-zero economy by 2038.
How Yorkshire Businesses Are Already Leading the Way
At Energy Oasis, we’ve seen firsthand the difference targeted clean energy strategies can make for Yorkshire businesses. Here are a few real-world success stories:
-
By overhauling outdated lighting in three units with intelligent LED technology, Viamaster slashed annual electricity costs by £9,700 and cut carbon emissions by nearly 9,500 kg. Enhanced light quality improved operations, and their pathway to Net Zero is clearer than ever.
-
We worked with Harrogate Community House to deliver bespoke LED lighting and intelligent controls. The results? Annual energy use dropped by 25,658 kWh, saving over £15,000 a year. Tenants benefit from a friendlier, brighter space while HADCA is on track for a rapid return on investment and a significantly lower carbon footprint.
-
Working in partnership with JT Atkinson, we transformed their energy strategy by installing solar PV systems, intelligent LED lighting, and energy monitoring across multiple branches. These comprehensive measures reduced electricity consumption by 75% and cut annual costs from up to £16,000 to around £3,150 per site. Over 1,198 tons of CO₂ have been saved so far, with solar generation now often covering more than their electricity bills.
The Cost—and Opportunity—of Energy Waste
Inefficient equipment and outdated systems lead to significant energy loss, impacting both bottom lines and Yorkshire’s environment. This funding is proof that solutions exist—and they work. But it isn’t only public organisations that can benefit. With the right approach, Yorkshire businesses can mirror these projects to cut energy bills, save energy and operate more sustainably.
Practical Steps for Yorkshire Businesses
-
Just as public buildings are reviewing their systems, businesses need a clear view of their own usage. A professional energy audit from Energy Oasis reveals where money could be slipping away due to inefficient heating, lighting, or equipment. Data-driven insights empower you to cut waste and start saving immediately.
-
The greenest energy is the energy you don’t use. Before installing new panels or systems, look for solutions that address your biggest sources of waste. Smart controls, efficient lighting, and better insulation often provide the fastest ROI—something we help deliver for organisations across Harrogate, Leeds, Sheffield, and beyond.
-
Following the example of Yorkshire’s public sector, businesses shouldn’t miss out on government grants and schemes aimed at sustainable upgrades. Energy Oasis guides you through the entire process—identifying the most appropriate funding, helping with applications, and delivering turnkey projects that meet your needs.
