MCS Charitable Foundation is an independent UK-wide charity that aims to accelerate the widespread adoption of renewable energy and low carbon technologies. With growing concerns about the climate emergency and rising energy costs, the need for low carbon solutions has never been greater. The foundation's mission is to ensure that everyone has access to affordable and reliable renewable energy, enabling us to have warm, comfortable homes as part of a resilient, zero carbon future.

MCS Charitable Foundation carries out its work through awarding grants and building partnerships to support innovation in areas such as skills, public education, research, and zero carbon delivery programs. They also oversee the MCS Company, which defines, maintains, and improves quality standards for renewable energy at a building scale. By using evidence from their supported projects, they advocate for improvements to public policy.

Established in 2018, the Foundation became the sole shareholder of the MCS Company, which runs the quality and standards scheme. The business surpluses from the Company fund the Foundation's charitable work and grant-giving program. With their dedication to advancing renewable energy and low carbon technologies, MCS Charitable Foundation is making a significant impact towards a more sustainable future
