UK BUSINESS FACES A LOSE-LOSE SITUATION

UK Companies that fail to register their energy use by next month will be hit with fines that could reach £45,000 under the little-known rules of the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC). Those that do participate in the initiative by declaring their energy use will face charges for every ton of greenhouse gas they produce. These payments are expected to average £38,000 a year for medium-sized firms, and could reach £100,000 for larger organisations. --James Kirkup, Harry Wallop and Louise Gray, The Daily Telegraph, 11 August 2010
