The above costs are inclusive of VAT, any standing charges and climate change levy applied to the invoices.

Companies House procures green electricity which supports electricity generated from renewable sources under the Government’s climate change levy exemption scheme.

Prior to the current year, The Insolvency Service was tied to contracts that did not include the supply of energy from renewable sources. We have now entered into a contract for our largest office which will include 10 per cent. renewable energy for the first year of the contract, with incremental increases thereafter. It is our intention to add further offices to this contract when other existing leases come to an end. It should also be noted that the data supplied in the table above applies to those buildings (approximately 25 per cent. of the estate) where we are billed for energy directly. Those offices where utilities are met through the landlord’s service charge are not included.
