The Carbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency Scheme (CRC for short) forms part of the UK Government’s drive towards a low carbon economy and is intended to encourage energy efficiency in larger energy users. From 1 April 2010, most medium to large energy users will be required to measure and report their energy usage (including electricity, gas and fuel oil). From 1 April 2011, many will also be required to purchase emissions allowances, which will effectively act as permits to emit a given amount of carbon dioxide. Smaller organisations that are not subject to the CRC may need to make an information disclosure each year as to the amount of energy used, and will probably need to join the next phase of the scheme.
This talk will cover the following issues:
- The structure of the scheme
- Who has to join the scheme, and how to register for it
- Obligations for organisations within the scheme
- Buying allowances and calculating the recycling payments
- Consequences for landlords and tenants
- Practical steps that need to be taken now
