*GHG - Greenhouse Gas

There are several governmental schemes in place to drive the legislation, all helping businesses reduce energy consumption and costs whilst improving efficiency and the environment. 

Climate Change Agreements (CCA) – Allow eligible energy-intensive businesses to receive up to a 81% discount on gas and up to 92% for electricity on their Climate Change Levy (CCL) in return for meeting energy efficiency or carbon-saving targets

Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting Scheme (SECR) – is new legislation affecting all large UK undertakings from April 2019 who must annually report on their energy use, carbon emissions and efficiency measures

Energy Savings Opportunities Scheme (ESOS) – A mandatory European energy assessments and energy savings identification scheme for large businesses

Energy Intensity Industry Scheme (EIIS) – Schemes which compensate the most electricity-intensive industries in the UK for the impact of increased energy prices caused by renewable sources of energy
