Hi David
You can request an environmental upgrade finance application pack via the Sustainable Melbourne Fund website at http://www.sustainablemelbourn...
The pack provides application documents and outlines what is required to apply.
The basic parameters for a successful application are around building and project eligibility - the guide in the application pack goes into detail on these.
There are two types of improvements for the purpose of reviewing projects for eligibility - common improvements and custom improvements.
Common improvements have a good track record of producing energy savings, water savings or renewable energy in most settings and are pre-approved.
Custom improvements are more complex design based improvements that may require specialist design input to realise the potential of the upgrade.
With both types of improvement we've taken a "nailed down" approach - that is, as the underlying charge remains with the building the improvements also need to remain with the building.
