Funding
Without a solid business case AND funding our analyses and recommendations won’t be implemented nor will benefit’s be realised by clients or the environment.
To improve the chances of projects or programs being implemented Water and Energy Savers (WES) maintain a constant watch over grant programs nationally and internationally. Our success in securing government grants includes $70M in Community Water Grant funds benefiting 1,546 organisations nationally. This mindset has lead to WES developing and managing the Department of Sustainability and Environment’s (Victoria) 'Payment by Savings' model for up to 2,400 schools. In this case participants are able to use the economic benefits of environmental efficiency gains to offset the cost of implementation over a period of up to three years; hence, the term ‘payment by savings’. WES also facilitate payment plans for qualifying commercial customers and organisations as part of a joint initiative with the Sustainable Melbourne Fund. |
