Details

This measure extends the VAT relief to installations of energy-saving materials (ESMs) in buildings used solely for relevant charitable purposes, such as village halls or similar recreational facilities for a local community.

The measure also expands the scope of the relief to include:

  • water-source heat pumps
  • electrical batteries that store electricity generated by certain ESMs and from the National Grid
  • diverters that allow excess electricity from certain ESMs to be used within a building where it is generated rather than exported to the grid
