NSW Clean Technology Commercialisation Grants

The objectives of the NSW Clean Technology Commercialisation Grants available to businesses with a turnover of less than $20 million, are to:

accelerate the deployment and scale-up of clean technologies for trade in Australian and international markets
support establishment and growth of innovative clean technology businesses and low emission industries that future-proof jobs.

Clean technology is defined as technologies that substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions including low emission technologies. Theses ‘Technologies’ can be processes, products and services including hardware, software and business model innovations.

The types of activities funded by these grants include:

full-scale pilots and demonstration projects in operational environments
engaging external professionals to provide commercialisation guidance
scaling production, marketing or other activities to support customer sales
engaging a senior experienced executive to fill a key gap in a management team.

For the current grants program the priority of these clean technologies is around:

electrification and energy systems – accelerating renewable energy solutions and supporting the uptake of electrification in other sectors
land and primary industries – coordinating and aligning efforts in the next wave of sustainable primary industry practices
power fuels including hydrogen – growing an environmentally sustainable NSW power fuels industry.

As this is a NSW Government program, the project needs located and delivered within NSW.

The minimum amount for a single grant project is $250,000 and the maximum amount for is $5 million. You will also need to match this funding.

There are also requirements around the stage of your project. In NSW government parlance the project needs a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 6 to 9 and a Commercial Readiness Index (CRI) less than 5.
