Energy-intensive industries: exemption from indirect costs of the Contracts for Difference scheme
We’re seeking your views on proposed changes to the regulations covering energy-intensive industries (EIIs).
Detail
We’re proposing changes to the regulations that underpin the exemption of energy-intensive industries (EIIs) from indirect costs of the Contracts for Difference (CFD) scheme. We’re also consulting on options to recover over-exemptions from the indirect costs of the CFD, Renewables Obligation and Feed-in-Tariffs schemes.
Without intervention, there is a risk that EIIs face significant rises to their energy bills, placing them at a serious competitive disadvantage.
We’re seeking views from:
- legal and regulatory specialists
- trade associations
- energy intensive industries
- energy suppliers and providers
- others with an interest in the UK energy infrastructure
