CTA Scotland: Meet the Funder with Energy Saving Trust – Plugged in Communities Grant Fund 2025/26

Join us on Tuesday 19 August, 11:00–12:00 for this exclusive CTA members’ session with the Energy Saving Trust (EST), an independent organisation working to address the climate emergency.

For the past few years, EST has managed and administered Transport Scotland’s Plugged in Communities Grant, helping many community transport operators secure brand-new electric vehicles.

In this session, you will:

  • Meet the EST team and hear about their work supporting community organisations
  • Learn about this year’s Plugged in Communities funding round, including:
    • Changes to the scheme
    • The application process
    • Evidence requirements
    • Grant offers and claims
  • Have the chance to ask your questions about this funding or other support EST can offer

If you are considering applying for the fund, this is the perfect opportunity to prepare your application and get your questions answered.

There will be time for an open Q&A. If you’d like to submit questions in advance, please email scotland@ctauk.org.
