Article summary

The Environment Agency (EA) has updated its greenhouse gas emissions charging scheme for the period from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, following its November 2024 consultation. Initially, the scheme will exclude charges for waste installations and the maritime sector. The EA plans to amend the scheme once these sectors are integrated into the UK Emissions Trading Scheme. The EA has also updated its statutory guidance on the scheme.
