More about CRC:
The CRC is the UK's first mandatory carbon trading scheme. It requires both public and private organisations with half-hourly metered energy to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption in order to achieve carbon emissions reduction targets set out in the Climate Change Act of 2008.
Specifically, businesses that consumed over 6,000 MWh (6,000,000 kWh) of half-hourly metered electricity between January 2008 and December 2008 will need to register for the CRC scheme. (This equates to an electricity spend of approximately £500,000 per year).
