NEEF Funding
Maximise your opportunity for NEEF Grant – Expected Jan 2025
The NHS Energy Efficiency Fund (NEEF) supports infrastructure investments aimed at reducing energy waste, cutting energy costs, and lowering carbon emissions. This funding offers NHS Trusts and Foundation Trusts the opportunity to enhance patient and staff environments with improved lighting while achieving significant financial savings and carbon reductions.
NEEF funding can be used for a wide range of energy-saving projects, including the installation of energy-efficient lighting, heating, and insulation, as well as the implementation of renewable energy solutions, such as Solar PV. By offering financial assistance, the NEEF scheme aims to reduce energy costs and contribute to the UK’s long-term environmental goals.
When the NHS Energy Efficiency Fund (NEEF) grant was launched in December 2023, NHS trusts had just three weeks to access this crucial funding for decarbonisation projects.

A statement from the Countess of Chester Hospital, who was successful with their latest NEEF application.
“The Countess of Chester Hospital was delighted to have secured £1 million in NEEF funding, enabling a comprehensive LED lighting upgrade across our facility. This would not have been possible without EES Group’s invaluable support, whose reactive and flexible approach ensured the project was delivered efficiently, adapting to our needs throughout to minimise disruption.
