In today’s economic climate, it may be difficult for some small and medium sized businesses to get the credit needed to upgrade to more energy efficient and carbon friendly equipment. The Carbon Trust offers loans that could be the solution. They not only offer interest free credit to help you make businesses more efficient, they also help lower energy bills and cut carbon emissions.

The loans are available to small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in England and Scotland, or all businesses in Wales that have been trading for at least 12 months. In addition, all businesses based in Northern Ireland that have also been trading for at least 12 months may be eligible to apply for an unsecured interest free loan.

All loans are unsecured, interest free and repayable over a period of up to 4 years. There are no arrangement fees and applying is straightforward.

Loans are available from £3,000 to £100,000 in England, Scotland and Wales and up to £500,000 in Northern Ireland.
