The aim of the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme is to lower national carbon emissions by encouraging organisations in the public and private sector to become more energy efficient through energy saving projects. The target is to reduce the level of carbon emissions by larger 'lower ebergy intensive' organisations by 1.2 million tonnes of CO2 by 2020. As a Climate Change Bill commitment the scheme is vital to achieving the overall targets of a reduction in CO2 emissions of at least 80% by 2050.

Those businesses which cut energy costs through low energy lighting, insulation, free cooling chillers and other energy efficient technologies will not only benefit from lower energy bills but will lessen the financial impact of being forced to buy carbon credits under the scheme, gain great PR from climbing the CRC League Tables and actually turn their carbon credits into profit at the end of each financial year.

The CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme is a Mandatory Commitment if:

• At least one half-hourly electricity meter settled on the half hourly market in 2008.
• A "HH" electricity consumption of more than 6000 MWh in 2008.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE SEPT 30TH 2010.
