Relief Mechanisms
Energy Relief and Compensation Schemes We Advise On
Energy Intensive Industry (EII) Relief
The Energy Intensive Industries scheme (also known as the British Industrial Supercharger Scheme) reduces certain policy costs included in electricity prices for eligible energy-intensive manufacturers.
Companies manufacturing products in eligible sectors and meeting the relevant scheme thresholds, including the required electricity intensity test, may qualify for relief on costs associated with the Renewables Obligation (RO), Contracts for Difference (CfD), Feed-in Tariff (FIT), and Capacity Market (CM), RAB Levy and EII NCC Levy.

Can a business qualify for more than one scheme?
In short, yes! If a business falls into a sector which has support in multiple schemes, there is nothing to stop them from applying to all of them. Most of the schemes complement each other and can operate alongside one another, depending on the business’s sector, energy profile, and qualifying activities.
