What are the benefits of being in a CCA?
With energy prices continuing to rise in the UK, chances are that energy bills are increasingly beginning to erode away your profit margins. Look at a recent electricity or LPG bill and you will see a line on in saying Climate Change Levy Charge. Companies participating in a CCA have this charge reduced by up to 80%. By meeting energy usage reduction targets and meeting responsibilities set out in a CCA, sites are able to claim this reduction from the date they join the scheme up until the end of March 2013. Sites are eligible to receive a reduction of up to 80% of the tax levy they currently pay on their energy use. The current levy is as follows and set to broadly increase in line with inflation.
