Article summary

The Scottish Government has announced that ten companies have been awarded £9.4m to support Scottish industries in reducing carbon emissions through energy efficiency and decarbonisation projects. The recipient companies are from the second round of the Scottish Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (SIETF) and mainly involved in the manufacturing and food and drink sectors. The successful projects include a more energy efficient dryer at a seaweed processing facility, while several brewers and whisky distilleries will also receive funding for projects in order to reduce the emissions that are created during energy-intensive manufacturing processes. The Scottish Government highlighted that the projects that were awarded funding have the potential to reduce emissions by 40,482 tonnes of CO2 annually.
