Do You Know the Amount of Carbon Emitted by Your Business?
Publication Date: December 05, 2008
In 2010 the top 5,000 or so companies in the UK will have to buy “allowances” to cover the carbon emissions of their group in the UK. The Government are setting up a Carbon Reduction Commitment (‘CRC’) Scheme. The Climate Change Act came into force last week containing just a broad outline of the Scheme.
Draft Regulations with much needed details are to be published in February 2009 but consultation about the Scheme has already taken place so there are some things that we know big businesses need to start doing now and to prepare for emissions trading!
This client alert is aimed at those organisations who have not yet considered the CRC in relation to their UK business. It is a brief introduction. We can help you with more detailed information once the Regulations are available.
