We’re accelerating clean technology solutions from idea to market-ready by providing funding and support throughout the entire product development lifecycle.
We are investing in a diverse range of projects from commercialisation and pilot schemes to start-up ecosystems and cutting-edge infrastructure. This will turbo charge the research, development and commercialisation of technology that will help NSW achieve net zero by 2050.
In 2023, we invested $15.9 million in 12 successful projects as part of our round 1 funding, to create an innovative and thriving clean technology community in NSW.
Round 2 opportunities
Round 2 funding opportunities are now open for applications as part of the Net Zero Manufacturing Initiative.
We are making it more straightforward for eligible researchers, innovators, and entrepreneurs to apply for round 2 grants. This round will focus on fast-tracking the commercial readiness of new clean technologies to get them to market sooner.
There are 2 funding streams to apply for in round 2:
- Project development stream will provide funding to test the technical and commercial feasibility, viability and/or compliance of a product or project.
- Commercial readiness stream will target projects and activities that have completed technical demonstrations of the technology and are progressing towards commercialisation.
