Welsh Government welcomes measures to improve energy use, and thereby save carbon, in business premises and is pleased to see the retail industry tackling this issue.

A new £20m capital fund is being developed for 2024/25 and will provide support for retail, leisure, and hospitality businesses to future-proof their businesses. We will be providing full details on eligibility later this month.

We continue to work closely, in social partnership, with the Retail Forum to deliver the actions within the Retail Action Plan.
