The Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF) is a funding mechanism for the Electricity System Operator, Electricity Transmission, Gas Transmission and Gas Distribution sectors.
The SIF aims to find and fund ambitious, innovative projects with the potential to accelerate the transition to net zero. These projects should help shape the future of the gas and electricity networks and succeed commercially where possible.
On 10 October 2023, we published SIF Project Directions for 36 round two Alpha phase projects in the SIF.
Since then, we have approved change requests from network companies regarding some projects. We have published the updated SIF Project Directions below.
