Climate Change Services
Climate Change is much more than responsible business practise.
Why Is Climate Change An Opportunity For Your Business?
The UK's decision to adopt the Kyoto Agreement has resulted in schemes designed to reduce the CO2 output of the business sector. Forward-thinking businesses can save money and improve their competitive position by managing these schemes effectively.
- Climate Change Agreements typically save 10% of energy costs.
- The Carbon Reduction Commitment can be profit-positive for effective businesses.
- Energy Efficiency measures save you money, every year you sustain them.
The Carbon Reduction Commitment
This new piece of Carbon savings law is already with us. If you have half-hourly electricity meters, your organisation will be required to register. If your whole UK organisation – not just your site – spends around £500,000 on energy, you may be a Full Participant, and obliged to buy Carbon Allowances anually. Utility Masters will help your business to comply with The Carbon Reduction Commitment, identifying what you need to do to make this new legislation work in your favour.
Climate Change Agreements
Your business may be eligible for exemption from the Climate Change Levy. We safeguard over £3.8 million of these tax exemptions every year for our customers. It's important that you protect your savings: a failed audit by HM Revenue & Customs or Defra can mean you lose your exemption, harming your business profits. Our class-leading systems and reporting meet your requirements, leaving you free to concentrate on your core business.
Carbon Trading
Utility Masters trades Carbon allowances, to help businesses meet CO2 reduction targets. Carbon trading can ensure that you meet the obligations of your Climate Change Agreement or The Carbon Reduction Commitment, or can secure extra income for your business.
