The article reports on the announcement by the British government that energy-intensive industries will be exempted from upcoming fuel charges designed to fund investment in low-carbon power generati...
You don't need to apply for the reduction if your business is outside the Energy and Trade Intensive Industries (ETII). Suppliers will automatically apply discounts to your energy bills. Note: ETTI energy customers are eligible for higher levels of support of up to 70% of their energy usage...
Trends show a shift in hydrogen production from carbon-intensive methods to technologies that do not rely on fossil fuels. The bulk of recent increased patent activity is directed to electrolysis development, while patent activity related to production from biomass and waste has decreased. Electrolysis...
electricity support payments for energy-intensive industries; and extension of time to exercise powers in relation to smart meter licensing; Part 8 covers the regulation of heat networks. This includes: designating a regulator for heat networks and assigning heat network zones; creation of a Heat ...
Energy-intensive industries have previously been found to have an improvement potential regarding the current monitoring of EnPIs, especially at process level. While general models for developing and implementing EnPIs exist, manufacturing industries are diverse in terms of their production processes, ...
The CBI, whilst supporting the move to a low carbon economy has concerns over the cumulative Impact on traditional intensive energy industries. In its report ʻProtecting the UK's essentials: a blueprint for energy-intensive industries' it states: "The UKʼs energy-intensive industries are ...
It is easy to assume that energy-intensive power plants or steel businesses are more directly related to climate change than electric and elec- tronic companies. Such a belief would stand unchallenged if only greenhouse gas emissions from production processes are concerned. This is because the ...
generate heat using fossil fuels (wood and various coal products). These indirect measures provide important price signals, however design and implementation challenges remain, especially in contexts where energy-intensive industries are subject to strong international competition and may ask for exemptions...
Energy-intensive companies (and others) were exempted from the EEG surcharge. Later, conversion costs of coal companies and nuclear waste costs were also socialized by the Angela Merkel-led coalition. (5) New technologies led to the decentralization of energy systems. This was fiercely supported ...
RE is less carbon-intensive and more sustainable than traditional energy sources, hence explaining its growing popularity. Such green energy resources not only have limited impacts on the environment but also contribute to energy savings and reduce the dependence of industries on fossil fuels. ...
