BCSC is pleased to provide an update in its series of guidance notes on the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC), which is to come into effect on 01 April 2010.

Guidance Note 65 - The Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) Energy Efficiency Scheme: Implementation raises industry awareness of this mandatory regulation which will have repercussions for all non-domestic buildings that have an annual half-hourly electricity use of above 6,000 MWh (an electric bill of approximately £500,000). All owners and occupiers of property should be aware that, even if they are not affected when the scheme is launched, CRC could in the longer term affect the way properties are bought and sold.

The guidance provides an overview of what the CRC is and its implications for your business. Please download a copy of the guidance at www.bcsc.org.uk/publications
