Great British Energy (GBE) Supply Chain Fund: Offshore Wind and Networks
Capital grants for UK manufacturing of critical offshore wind and network components.
This fund supports capital projects that build UK manufacturing capacity for key constrained components in offshore wind and enabling electricity networks.
It is for companies registered under the Companies Act 2006 that are constructing new manufacturing facilities or extending existing ones in the UK.
Projects must primarily produce eligible Critical Components, such as offshore wind component…
In scope: construction of new or extension of existing manufacturing facilities in the UK that primarily produce one or more eligible “Critical Components”: mooring and anchoring, blades, nacelles, towers, monopiles, transition pieces, HVDC cables, HVAC cables (including Dynamic), power transformers (AC and DC), HVDC converter stations, switchgear, reactive power management and control systems. Eligible costs must be capital expenditure directly related to the project, including buildings, production equipment and machinery, associated infrastructure linked to the specific product being manufactured, and research and development costs associated with the manufacturing facility where the grant also supports construction of those facilities. Out of scope: operating expenditure, land purchase or property transactions, associated service and maintenance agreements, embedded warranty costs, and interest costs.
