Once you have registered, you must plan for your participation in the scheme. The following checklist will help you with this:
- How will I manage the CRC liability of my rented or leased properties and manage energy consumption and reporting in these locations?
- Do my estates team and energy manager understand the CRC's challenges and timelines?
- Does my finance manager understand the financial impact and budgetary requirements of the CRC scheme? (See: How much will CRC cost?)
- What is my organisation’s total carbon footprint and can I accurately identify and report my total emissions footprint?
- Can I collect, model and forecast my CRC emissions throughout the year to manage my CRC liabilities, opportunities and risks?
- How will I be positioned on the CRC league table and how do I optimise this position (see: The CRC performance league table)?
- What are my carbon abatement and early action opportunities?
- What is my CRC allowance trading strategy?
AEA was the Government’s principal technical adviser on the CRC so we are uniquely positioned to help you answer these questions and ensure you understand, prepare for and benefit from this new legislation.
