The Sports Capital and Equipment Programme (SCEP) is the primary vehicle for Government support for the development of sports and recreation facilities and the purchase of non-personal sports equipment throughout the country. Over 13,000 projects have now benefited from sports capital funding since 1998, bringing the total allocations in that time to over €1 billion. Full details of the Programme and the type of projects funded can be found at www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie
While LED floodlighting is specifically referenced in the "Guide to Making an Application", applications for other forms of lighting (including mobile lighting options) can also be submitted and will be considered so long as the other terms and conditions of the Programme are adhered to.
In relation to the latest round of the SCEP, work is at an advanced stage and I expect grants to be announced in the coming weeks. Once these allocations are finalised an announcement on the timing of the next round of the Programme will be made.
