The Queensland Sustainable Energy Innovation Fund (QSEIF), administered by the Sustainable Community Division of the Department of Environment and Resource Management, assists Queensland based organisations to develop innovative technologies that reduce consumption of fossil fuels, water or greenhouse gas emissions.
The program focuses on the development and commercialisation of sustainable technologies, rather than pure research. Since 1999, QSEIF has committed $8.9 million in funding to 77 innovative energy and water saving projects in Queensland.
