What is the CRC?

The Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) is a new mandatory emission trading scheme that aims to improve energy efficiency and reduce the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced in the UK. This is vital to achieve the UK government's overall target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050, compared to the 1990 baseline.

The CRC follows an annual cycle. The first footprint year will be April 2010 to March 2011. Qualification for CRC is based on half hourly electricity consumption during the qualification period. For the introductory phase, this is the 2008 calendar year.

You can read the CRC Energy Effciency Scheme's guidance on the CRC by reading this guidance document.
