Legislation and Taxes

There are a number of legal regulations which clients must adhere to, and as part of our reporting service, CUC has established a procedure to ensure that our clients comply with all relevant legislative requirements.

VAT

Although the bulk of our clients pay 100% commercial VAT, there are variations which apply to particular clients when there are shared domestic premises or the client is a charity, an educational establishment or involved in the provision of public social housing.

CCL

CCL (Climate Change Levy) represents a surcharge applied to all commercial electricity and gas accounts. There are a number of procedures which can be followed in order to alleviate the impact of these costs. Green Energy options are available for all of our contract types, and a commensurate reduction in CCL charges are available if you contract to buy all your energy from a Green source.

CRC

From 2010 it will be necessary for clients with more than 6GWH of half-hourly electricity consumption to join the CRC (Carbon Reduction Committment) programme and pay for the quantity of carbon which they consume through their energy supplies. CUC provides a compliance audit to establish whether a client qualifies for the CRC, and if so, we provide an administrative service to complete all of the necessary government documentation when joining the scheme.
