Government proposes to introduce an exemption from CRC for entire organisations that have large parts of their energy used for transport (as defined in section 4.5.1). The Transport exemption will apply to the entire organisation, will last for the entire phase (subject to Designated Changes (24)), and will be based on half hourly electricity consumed over the course of the qualification year.).

The entire organisation would be exempted for the duration of the phase if its total half hourly electricity use over the course of the qualification year is less than 1,000 MWh, after it has excluded electricity consumed for transport (as defined in section 4.5.1). The organisation would have to reassess its participation or exemption at the start of each phase over the course of the qualification year.

An organisation that qualifies for an Organisation exemption will need to disclose this as part of its ‘non-participant disclosure’.

24 If, during a phase, an organisation exempted under the ‘Transport exemption’ bought a Principal Subsidiary from a CRC participant (or indeed bought an entire CRC participant), then it would be treated no differently from another non-CRC participant that had made that purchase. In this scenario, the organisation would then participate in CRC – but only in respect of the energy use of the Principal Subsidiary or participant it had purchased.

Question 24. Do you agree with the proposed Transport exemption based
on an exemption threshold of 1,000 MWh total half hourly electricity use
(over the qualification year/footprint year)?
