Lower long-term energy
costs
As well as the added tax incentive,
investing in energy-saving equipment could reduce
a company’s energy bills, as it has lower
running costs. This will also reduce a company’s
Climate Change Levy, so there are significant
long-term savings to be made from the initial
investment.
An environmentally friendly
reputation
Investing in energy-saving equipment
shows a commitment to reducing carbon emissions,
and can increase a company’s appeal with
both customers and investors.
Many people now look at how environmentally
friendly a company’s policies and production
methods are, before deciding to invest in it or
its products and services.
So as well as helping the environment,
it also makes good business sense to proactively
reduce energy usage. |
