A free Quick Guide to the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme has been published by Ener-G and Cornwall Energy Associates to help plant managers reduce the impact of the new energy tax that will apply to larger energy users in 2012.
Under the CRC, energy intensive organisations will be required to buy allowances from the government to cover emissions from 2011 to 2012 at a price equivalent to £12 per tonne of CO2, which could add an extra 0.65p/kWh to electricity costs and 0.22p/kWh to gas costs.
"The guide explains what is coming next from the CRC scheme and the steps organisations can take to boost their CRC performance."
