It will contribute to a low-carbon future.
€24m is being invested into the midlands under the EU Just Transition programme.
It's to provide support to projects aiding the development of local communities, diversifying the economy and creating employment.
This new funding can help the transition to a low-carbon future for the region.
Local Fianna Fáil TD Barry Cowen says: "Nobody should be left behind in the climate transition and this scheme will deliver resources to enable locally grown ideas in Offaly to become a reality".
