Energy and Climate Change written question – answered at on 18 May 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change what changes have been made to the carbon reduction commitment levy, in respect of energy which is also covered by a climate change agreement (CCA) where the CCA holder purchases energy from a landlord, since the October 2010 comprehensive spending review.
No changes have been made to the CRC energy efficiency scheme requirements where a climate change agreement (CCA) holder purchases energy from their landlord. It remains the policy intent that there should be no double counting of energy use under CRC and CCAs.
Where a CCA facility draws energy from landlord, the energy use will be counted to establish the CRC qualification of the landlord and that landlord will need to include the energy use from a tenant's CCA facilities as part of their once-per-phase footprint reporting obligations. However, the landlord does not need to report energy use covered by a CCA facility in its annual report and does not need to purchase CRC allowances for this energy use.
