Brexit – Possible outcomes and their impact on the energy markets

Let us help prepare you for Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting, mandatory from April 2019 following CRC abolition

As a result of the Government shakeup of carbon emission reporting and energy efficiency legislation, the new Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) framework, which is coming into force from April 2019, will affect an estimated 11,900 organisations in the UK that will now need to comply.

How will the widening of the EII Exemption Scheme affect your business?

To ensure the UK meets its low carbon targets, the Government has introduced several policies that are driving renewable growth. The cost of electricity has also increased which has made UK prices higher than in other countries.

MEES – Are you ready for April 1st?

With just over two weeks to go until the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) are introduced in England and Wales…are you ready for the implications? This new legislation coming into force on 1st April 2018, will make it unlawful for a landlord to let or renew a lease on a property if the energy performance certificate (EPC) rating is an F or G. This change also includes sublettings, which means that tenants that wish to dispose of unwanted space must also comply.

April 2018 – Industry updates you need to know

Starting on the 1st April 2018, there will be a few important energy industry changes coming into effect. With only a few months to go, now is the time to take action.

Calling all public sector bodies…is now the time to monitor, analyse and manage your energy consumption?

With the public sector spending around £22bn on energy every year, it is no wonder why energy is one of the largest expenditures for this sector. However there are very few energy efficiency measures in place to reduce energy consumption, prevent wastage and save costs. Energy is often overlooked by public sector organisations, which is perhaps due to a lack of knowledge or understanding of how much energy is being consumed and even potentially wasted.

DCP 161 – Are You Ready For April 2018?

From 1st April 2018, DCP 161 will be in force. DCP 161 is a new measure which has been introduced by Ofgem to ensure that half hourly (HH) supplies that exceed their assigned available capacity pay significantly more. It is a change to the DCUSA (Distribution Connection and Use of System Agreement) that will introduce excess capacity penalties for half hourly electricity supplies. This change will ensure that the additional costs that DNOs (Distribution Network Operators) can incur when customers exceed their available capacity levels are recovered.

Unidentified Gas Charges have increased

Effective from 1st October 2017, Unidentified Gas (UIG) is an unavoidable industry cost which is paid by all gas suppliers due to issues such as unregistered meters, pipe leaks and theft of gas by some end users.

Triad Season – Are you ready?

With the triad season starting in November and ending in February, is your business prepared for the changes ahead?

DCP 228 – What you need to know for April 2018

From April 2018, the new regulatory change from OFGEM, DCP 228 will alter the way in which electricity distribution charges are calculated. This will affect the way business properties are billed. Distribution charges currently account for up to 19% of your bill. As a result, you may look to re-examine the times at which you use energy in order to reduce costs.
