€1.3m in funding has been granted to midlands energy related projects.
The Climate Action Fund has allocated €478,000 to 12 projects in Westmeath the highest amount in the region.
€465,000 has been granted to Laois for 16 projects and €444,000 across 19 initiatives in Offaly.
Some schemes included in the funding are Laois Federation of Tidy Towns, Clara Heritage Society and The Downs GAA Club.

Climate action is not a quick fix and we need to be planning this year for next and so on."
