Technology Programmes (Energy Technologies Institute)

The ETI aims to increase energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and make a major contribution to the achievement of UK energy and climate change goals.

We have consulted widely, and in so doing, identified the focus areas for our programmes. By working together, sharing resources, knowledge and expertise, our Technology Programmes will accelerate the creation of innovative and commercially viable products and processes.

The sooner we can bring new technologies to the market, the sooner we can increase energy efficiency and protect the energy supply for present and future generations. 

Climate Funds Update

The International Climate Fund (ICF) is a UK initiative.  It is an across-departmental fund established by the UK 2010 Comprehensive Spending Review. It follows on from the Environmental Transformation Fund – International window (ETF-IW) to provide climate change related aid over the period 2011-12 to 2014-15.  It is planned that the International Climate Fund will account for 7.5 per cent of UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) by the end of the Spending Review period (2014-15).
