Energy Tax Reliefs

To enhance the competitiveness of the UK’s most energy-intensive businesses, the UK Government offer a range of energy compensation schemes. These include Energy-Intensive Industries (EII), Energy Intensive Industries Compensation (ETS), Climate Change Levy (CCL) and the upcoming British Industrial Competitiveness Scheme (BICS). At Leyton, we help businesses navigate these complex schemes to maximise eligible support and reduce energy costs.

Our specialist Energy consulting team helps eligible businesses lower non-commodity costs on their total energy bills, unlocking significant savings for energy-intensive industries.

Climate Change Levy (CCL) Exemption

Eligible manufacturers can claim exemptions from the Climate Change Levy on both electricity and gas supply.

British Industrial Competitiveness Scheme (BICS)

BICS is a new government led energy support scheme launching in April 2027. It offers eligible businesses exemption from the indirect costs of three electricity schemes: the Renewables Obligation, Feed-in Tariffs and the Capacity Market.

Energy Intensive Industries (EII) exemption scheme

The EII Exemption scheme allows eligible businesses to apply for exemptions from four taxes on their electricity bills, potentially reducing costs by 15–30%.

Sustainability Reporting Services

Our team of qualified carbon consultants support businesses with a wide range of carbon reduction and ESG reporting services, from energy tracking and emission calculations to net-zero modelling and full ESG reporting.

Energy-Intensive Industries Compensation (ETS)

The UK Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) and Carbon Price Support (CPS) mechanism indirectly impact electricity prices. Certain sectors may receive cash compensation to offset this cost.
