Make Carbon Reduction Commitment Work for Business

The CBI today (Tuesday) warned that the Government's flagship energy efficiency scheme is untenable in its current form, as it reiterated its call for the incentive behind the Carbon Reduction Commitment to be restored.


Launching a new policy brief, Back to the Answer: Making the CRC work, the UK's leading business group argues that the Government's decision to remove the revenue-recycling element at October's Spending Review has undermined the original purpose of the scheme of encouraging organisations to cut emissions.


The CBI added that the fact that the decision was made just two weeks after the final deadline closed came as an unexpected blow to organisations that had joined the scheme in good faith.
