Consultation description

This consultation seeks views on proposals for a new 6-year Climate Change Agreements scheme to begin in 2025.

The new scheme would add 3 new target periods running from 2025 to 2030, resulting in 3 certification periods running to 31 March 2033. It will provide further reductions in the Climate Change Levy for eligible participants.

The scheme would be open to new entrants who qualify under the current eligibility criteria.

The consultation outlines:

  • aspects of the current scheme that will be retained for the new scheme, as well as some policy decisions following on from proposals in our last consultation
  • further proposals for a future scheme, including the possibility for new sectors to apply to be eligible for the scheme, target setting, reporting and how performance will be measured

We are seeking views from:

  • sector associations and business which participate in the scheme
  • operators of facilities not currently in the scheme that may be eligible
  • trade associations
  • non-governmental organisations (NGOs)
  • consultants
  • energy suppliers
  • academia
  • any others with an interest in the scheme
