The Carbon Trust, in association with DECC, wants your opinion on the creation of a new fund to support UK-based start-ups and projects in the renewable energy and low-carbon space.

If you are a low carbon start-up, SME, project or R&D organisation, please take 15 minutes now to fill out the survey by clicking the link: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/CarbonTrust-Survey

The Carbon Trust is working with the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) to assess the need for a low-carbon start-up fund. If created, the fund would provide financial and/or incubation support to innovative low-carbon technology start-ups and projects. DECC wants to hear from individuals and organisations like yours about your objectives and needs.

They will send a summary of survey results to respondents that give an email address.

Your responses will remain confidential, and you may fill in the survey anonymously if you wish. Only the Carbon Trust will have access to individual responses. No government-related agencies, suppliers, or government departments (including DECC) will have any access to individual responses.

Please complete the survey by Friday 26th February 2016.

Your answers are saved by Survey Monkey as you go, so you are able to stop and resume the survey at a convenient time.

Thank you for your help, and please email us at survey@carbontrust.com if you have any questions or problems with the survey.
