UCEGM is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund and will deliver approximately 10 Megawatts (MW) of additional clean energy capacity to supply local authority assets across Greater Manchester. It also aims to demonstrate innovative and scalable energy business models, allowing greater participation in the emerging Local Energy Market, reducing reliance on subsidy and enabling future investment in clean energy. The project commenced in summer 2020 and will run until the end of May 2023. UCEGM is led by ESC in partnership with five Greater Manchester local authorities - Manchester, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, and Wigan. ESC have entered into a Grant Funding Agreement with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) to deliver the project including certain contracted outputs in the form of kilowatt hours of renewable energy that will be produced and resultant tonnes of carbon dioxide that the project will save.
