The Scottish Government has made funding available to Scottish local authorities to help them reduce emissions from their fleet vehicles.
Find out how to apply for grants here and find details of approved technologies.
The primary aim of the scheme is to provide an additional tool for authorities to improve air quality as part of their statutory local air quality management responsibilities. Grants will be offered at a rate of 30% (or 70% for local authorities that operate a Low Emission Zone) and a total budget of £1 million is available for 2008/09.
Only equipment included in the Scottish Government Emissions Reduction Register will be considered for funding. Any grant award will be subject to the Scottish Government's terms and conditions, which will be provided to successful applicants.
