Climate Change Levy Reliefs

CCL relief may remove or reduce Climate Change Levy where your circumstances qualify. An assessment is needed to establish the potential commercial benefit.

Overview

Climate Change Levy is an environmental tax on energy used by businesses. Manufacturers may qualify for an exemption or reduction when they meet the relevant operational or energy-use criteria.

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

The assessment uses technical data, process information and energy-apportionment evidence. The same evidence may also identify CCA or BICS screening flags.

Where expert review matters

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

  • Borderline manufacturing-process classification
  • Energy allocation and pro-rating
  • Shared meters, private supplies or landlord arrangements
  • Submission review and compliance controls
