Er mwyn cynnal cam cynta’r prosiect, mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cadarnhau benthyciad o £50 miliwn o gyfalaf i Gyngor Powys.  Yn gynharach yn y mis, addawodd Llywodraeth y DU hyd at £30 miliwn ar gyfer y prosiect yn ei Chyllideb Wanwyn.
In order to deliver the first phase of the project, the Welsh Government has confirmed a £50 million capital funding loan to be given to Powys Council. Earlier this month the UK Government pledged up to £30 million funding to the pioneering project in the spring budget.
