Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of introducing a scheme to allow small businesses to receive financial support to part fund improvements to their business that would contribute to reducing carbon emissions.

Support is available to businesses to reduce their carbon emissions and energy bills through the Government's Climate Change Agreements Scheme and the £289m Industrial Energy Transformation Fund.

There are also a number of local advice and support schemes that businesses can apply to here: https://www.gov.uk/business-finance-support.
