Climate Change Levy Reliefs

Removes or reduces Climate Change Levy in qualifying circumstances. Assessment is recommended to evaluate potential commercial benefit.

Overview

The Climate Change Levy (CCL) is an environmental tax charged on the energy used by businesses. Manufacturers can apply for exemptions or reductions if they meet specific operational or energy-usage criteria.

Current Reference Rate
CCL main electricity/gas reference rate from April 2026: £8.01/MWh.

Determining precise CCL relief applicability often requires detailed technical data, process flow analysis, and robust energy apportionment. Through Energy Relief Vault, we collect the necessary evidence base once, which can also flag cross-sell opportunities for CCAs or BICS.

Specialist Judgement

While technology handles evidence collection and structuring, classifying ambiguous processes and establishing defensible energy apportionment boundaries requires human expertise.

  • Classification ambiguity of borderline manufacturing processes.
  • Energy allocation and pro-rating calculations.
  • Complex site supplies, shared meters, or landlord arrangements.
  • Final submission oversight and compliance risk mitigation.
