Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, How much of the Industrial Energy Transformation Fund has been allocated to the manufacturing industry in the last 12 months.
The £289m Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF) supports companies in the manufacturing sector as well as mining and quarrying, recycling, and data centres. To date, we have allocated funding across five competitive application windows.
Between July 2022 and July 2023, the IETF has allocated £46.6m of funding to the manufacturing sector alone.
