About: Carbon Trust

An Entity of Type: Company Limited by Guarantee, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Carbon Trust was developed and launched in 1999-2001 as part of the development of the Climate Change Levy (CCL), a tax on business energy use that still operates today. The Carbon Trust was originally funded by around £50m of tax revenue generated from the Levy to help businesses reduce energy costs and therefore offset the additional cost of paying the CCL. The establishment of the Carbon Trust was announced in the 2000 White Paper "Climate Change - the UK Programme" (Cmd 4913)[1]. It was launched alongside the introduction of the CCL in March-April 2001.

  • The Carbon Trust was developed and launched in 1999-2001 as part of the development of the Climate Change Levy (CCL), a tax on business energy use that still operates today. The Carbon Trust was originally funded by around £50m of tax revenue generated from the Levy to help businesses reduce energy costs and therefore offset the additional cost of paying the CCL. The establishment of the Carbon Trust was announced in the 2000 White Paper "Climate Change - the UK Programme" (Cmd 4913)[1]. It was launched alongside the introduction of the CCL in March-April 2001. The Carbon Trust was conceived as a business-led, publicly funded organisation at arms length from the government. The early concept, design and governance were carried out in close consultation with business. Senior officials from the Devolved Administrations and the UK department (the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions) would sit on the Trust's Board, where non-business non-executive Directors were in the majority. However the chair, CEO and most of the executive team were appointed from the private sector. (en)
